Mr. Speaker, when the government picks winners and losers, the ultimate losers are Canadians. It is individual Canadian businesswomen and businessmen who are in the best position to make those decisions.
With respect to Bill C-69 and other pieces of legislation like it, the reality is that in Canada we have a GDP-per-hour problem, a productivity issue. The average in Canada is about $50 to $60. In oil and gas, it is $500. If we want to solve our productivity problem, it goes through Alberta, Canadian energy and Canadian oil and gas.
