Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is dead wrong.
The business decision was to invest $1 billion to start the process. The decision to not go ahead is a regulatory decision because of the double standard that the government is imposing upon Canadian projects.
The Liberals have cost 15,000 Canadians a job, and they have hurt our economy to the tune of $50 billion.
They are putting the interests of Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and Algeria before Canadian jobs. What does the Prime Minister have to say to that?
