Mr. Speaker, I did not say the emissions from the oil patch have decreased. In fact, I said the very opposite, so I appreciate the attention of the member. The emissions in the oil patch have gone up, the emissions from the oil and gas sector have gone up as has the production. That is why I am proud of this country and this government for being the first oil-producing nation, and indeed the first nation in the G20, to put a cap on pollution in the oil and gas sector.
We are a world's first, we are leaders in the fight against climate change and we are continuing to be an oil- and gas-producing nation. Our economy depends on oil and gas. We will continue to be a responsible agent of change with respect to energy production in Canada.
