Mr. Speaker, the NDP leader continues to say one thing in one part of the country that he will not say elsewhere. Canadians are noticing and the Premiers of Saskatchewan and Alberta have called him out for criticizing responsible resource development.
The NDP leader is trying to pit Canadians against one another instead of supporting sectors of the economy that create good high-paying jobs.
Yesterday, the NDP trotted out Lorne Nystrom, a senior adviser to the NDP leader, to say that the NDP leader will soon clarify the no development party's position against jobs, growth and long-term prosperity. This is totally unacceptable. Canadians are not buying it.
Premier Redford said this about the NDP leader: “I always think it's better for people to comment once they have the information than before they do”.
Using a former Saskatchewan MP to try to cover up the NDP leader's real position, its anti-jobs, anti-growth agenda is not going unnoticed by the people of the Prairies and, in particular, the people of Saskatchewan.
