Mr. Speaker, what I find interesting is that we had a comparison not that long ago with a neighbouring jurisdiction that basically, as a result of its approach, which was expanding in regard to natural gas development and energy development, became much more energy secure while its carbon footprint diminished. At the same time, we were signing accords and giving wonderful speeches with soaring rhetoric about what we were going to do with the implementation of the carbon tax, and our carbon emissions went up while the other jurisdiction's went down. We need a more practical approach that gets better results and less rhetoric.
