Mr. Speaker, I can assure my colleague of one thing. I was not a witness to that conversation, but I have witnessed the hard work and passion of the leader of the official opposition in this Parliament when we had the time to talk about the Canadian economy.
I can assure the member that the first point our leader addressed with the Prime Minister when he was elected the new Leader of the Opposition was the economy of Alberta, which is suffering so much. Alberta's economy could suffer more with this situation.
I can also assure the member that when the Leader of the Opposition talked with the Prime Minister about the budget, he raised the issue of Line 5. I can assure the member that the Leader of the Opposition is a champion of the Canadian economy and he is a champion of Canada's natural resources.
