Madam Speaker, in my speech, I did try to convince the Conservative Party and the official opposition by providing figures on employment and pay. They are not even my figures, they are the ones that were given to the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development during a study proposed by the Conservative Party itself. I hope that, instead of seeing green technologies as something that is good only for a few people, the Conservatives will see that they are good for everyone. It is a good employment sector that is growing, and we need to prioritize it for the sake of our health and the health of the environment, as I said in my conclusion.
