Mr. Speaker, as I was saying, it is important to note that hydraulic fracturing has been used safely in western Canada for decades, I think over 60 years, with no incidents of contamination to drinking water.
As I mentioned before, not one, not two, but three prominent bodies--the Alberta Energy Regulator, the B.C. Oil and Gas Commission, and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources--confirm that there has never been a proven case of well water contamination resulting from hydraulic fracturing under their jurisdiction.
That is where the drilling occurs and we are going to continue to work with the provinces and territories, because they are the primary regulators, to make sure that Canadians get the best benefit out of this resource.
