Madam Speaker, obviously this government has worked very effectively on strengthening Canada's environmental protection.
I was part of the environment committee that completed a review of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. The member may not be aware of this, but that bill, under the previous Liberal government, was completely ineffective because of all the red tape and it was refined.
I am told now that President Obama is looking at the effective regulation in this country as a way to build environmental protection in the United States. That is our record.
