Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to table our dissenting report, because what we heard at committee was 10 years of wasted time with these Liberals. Our dissenting report goes through the repealing of the Impact Assessment Act to shorten approvals, eliminate red tape and respect provincial jurisdiction. This is very important, because we have heard of many mining projects that have been shelved because of this act. We also, in this report, talk about the fast-tracking of all current mining-related projects stuck in the federal regulatory queue. That is supported by industry.
With the Major Projects Office, one witness warned that “looking to attract investment through the bottleneck of the MPO is unlikely to produce the outcomes that we're looking for.” For that and many other good reasons, we submit our dissenting report on what we should do as a nation.
