Yes, Madam Speaker. We always support the people of Saskatchewan. In fact, just last week we showed how well we support them.
Mining is important to Saskatchewan.
The opposition coalition is not transparent. Those members were not clear or transparent with their constituents. They talk about mining and how they support it, but Bill C-300 would have devastated the whole mining industry.
We are working hard to adhere to the law and to the act.
As for BHP and the government of Saskatchewan, the industry was aware of the concerns raised by the government of Saskatchewan, and those concerns were taken into consideration. It is important for the member to know that we support the government and the industry minister in his decision yesterday.
