That is the arrogance, Mr. Speaker, that got us a veto from Obama on Keystone XL.
To get projects approved, we need to work with others, but this is the Prime Minister who will not meet with premiers or first nations' leaders, who calls environmentalists eco-terrorists, and the Prime Minister who cancelled the three amigos conference with Mexico and the U.S. In the words of Brian Mulroney, “...the top foreign policy priority of the prime minister” should be to have a personal relationship with the U.S. president.
Why does the Prime Minister not take Mulroney's advice and build the relationships we need to defend Canadian jobs?
