Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister disrespected chiefs by shutting them out of the MOU consultations and discussions with Alberta. The Prime Minister talked down to first nation chiefs yesterday at AFN for 20 minutes about not breaking trust. Then he completely ignored all questions from Alberta first nations.
The Prime Minister is breaking trust with first nations, investors, Albertans, British Columbians, his caucus and his own cabinet on whether he will build a pipeline or not. Will he show real leadership by committing to a pipeline today, or will he just continue to divide Canadians?
