Madam Speaker, the hon. member is right that governments do not dictate oil sand projects. Market conditions do. The fact is that there are already 20 oil sands projects approved, and the government is out of the way. The 20 oil sands projects are not moving forward because of one reason: the price of a barrel of oil.
I know my hon. colleague would like us to abandon the TMX project, but abandoning the TMX project is the same thing as abandoning the transition toward a clean economy. That is exactly what the TMX project is all about. It is about investing $500 million per year in clean tech.
We will not give up on Alberta energy sector workers and we will not give up on the clean energy workers.
