Mr. Chair, we have been talking about our responsible resource development program that would put more onus on companies to be much more careful in the way they operate in the natural resource sectors, that would put a lot more onus on them when it comes to the environmental process, to get approval.
With this extra responsibility on companies, I would like to ask the minister whether he believes this process, which in fact would just cut down the timeline for approval or rejection of a project, would actually push companies away from investing in Canada or whether it would encourage more companies to invest in Canada and I would like him to give the reasons for his answer.
