Madam Speaker, I would like to congratulate the member for St. John's East on her speech. Many years ago I lived in that riding, so I am very familiar with it. I am also familiar with Newfoundland and Labrador and the transitions that they have had to go through over the past decades, going from cod fishing to offshore oil.
We are facing another transition away from fossil fuels, yet there was nothing in the Speech from the Throne about the just transition. It should have been the number one priority of the speech. This is what our country is facing, and I am wondering if the hon. member can comment on why it was left out.
