Mr. Speaker, I could not agree more.
Many Conservative members are quite confused.
I mentioned the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Finance, who was concerned today about the export of raw logs. We share his concern in this regard. The same logic applies to oil.
Why are the Conservatives worried about exporting one raw resource that could be processed here for added value; yet, they do not think it is worth having the same debate about our oil resources, particularly our oil sands resources.
This double standard shows that there is confusion about the intent and the effects of the government's policies.
