Mr. Speaker, we have done a lot of consultation since 2019. We have certainly had conversations with industry, with provinces and territories, with indigenous groups and with environmentalists. The bill was introduced here in June of last year. It stayed here for eight months, which is a long time. Having said that, we respect provincial jurisdiction. This bill focuses on areas of federal jurisdiction.

I agreed with Minister Fréchette that we would exercise our respective responsibilities in our areas of jurisdiction in order to serve Quebeckers effectively. That is what I intend to do. That is what the minister intends to do as well.
