Mr. Speaker, as an MP from Quebec, I am surprised to see that Quebec has finally decided to allow oil exploration to proceed in the province. I hope it continues forward with that plan.
Developing our natural resources in Quebec is absolutely crucial to overcoming economic challenges and balancing public finances.
I can assure Quebec that the federal government will continue leading by example. We hope that the Quebec government will follow in order to ensure job creation and economic prosperity.
It is important to enhance the economic autonomy of la belle province, Quebec.
