Mr. Speaker, for 10 years, the Conservative government under Stephen Harper had a single focus: to support the oil sands by getting our resources to new markets other than the United States. It failed.
The Conservatives could not get any of our resources to new markets because they refused to accept that the only way to move forward on energy projects was to respect indigenous peoples and to defend the environment at the same time.
That is exactly what we have been working on for three years. That is what we are going to continue to work on. The Trans Mountain project is in the national interest and we are going to get it built in the right way.
