Mr. Speaker, should respecting provincial jurisdictions not be the first consideration when working with them?
Similarly, on the environmental front, all the premiers, including Quebec's, asked that environmental assessments carried out by the provinces and by Quebec take precedence over those carried out by Ottawa, to ensure that the environmental protection measures are consistent and to implement measures requiring projects to respect the environmental priorities and issues of Quebec and the provinces.
Will the Prime Minister refuse to listen in this case, too?
