Madam Speaker, I am really shocked by what I thought I heard. I am going to ask the hon. member to clarify what she said.
I heard that if there is to be an advisory committee or an advisory board that we should specifically exclude the oil and gas sector from that. This, to me, is offensive on two levels. First, that sector would probably be the most impacted by any substantive changes to our climate change approach. It would seem that it would simply be unfair to exclude their voice from the consideration of things that should be done. Second, from things that I have read, that sector has in fact outperformed just about any other in Canada when it comes to dealing with climate change.
How can the member justify excluding such an important sector in such an unfair way?
