Madam Speaker, I thank the member for his work on the finance committee and for being one of those rare staunch supporters of the energy industry from the other side.
The important point is that this is about energy security for North America, and there is a tremendous opportunity for Canada and the U.S. to collectively build that security and displace other players who are not living to the same standards. There is an enormous opportunity here and we should take full advantage of it. I do believe that the Americans would be good partners, understanding that we both have the same goal.
