Mr. Speaker, this decision is good news for Quebec and for Canada.
The National Energy Board made this decision. A number of people were involved in the hearings. I think over 170 people participated in this.
This is great news, not only for the people of Quebec but for all of eastern Canada, which will have a greater supply of western Canadian oil, thereby allowing us to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. It is also extraordinarily good news for Montreal and Lévis, Quebec. We will have refineries.
It is good news for the people in the Maritimes. All around, it is a very good news day for Canada. It is good news for eastern Canada.
