Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, if the hon. member and members of the Conservative Party of Canada were really concerned about the energy sector and pipeline projects, they would not have voted to kill and end the process we have put in place to move forward on the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion

Natural Resources  Mr. Speaker, this is a good opportunity to remind the members of the official opposition that their broken system led to failure on northern gateway.
