Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are completely lost in their arguments.
By purchasing a pipeline that will take our oil to new markets outside the U.S., we are actually standing up for jobs and workers in the natural resource sector in Alberta and across the country. It is what the Conservatives tried to do for 10 years, but they failed because they did not understand that the environment and the economy must go hand in hand.
We are proud of the work we are doing to protect the environment and access new markets to grow our economy, and we will continue to do so.
