Mr. Speaker, today is the day that this government's greatest contribution to global warming comes on line: Trans Mountain. With this pipeline, the Liberals have ensured that oil dependence will continue for decades more. All the Prime Minister's rhetoric will never erase the simple fact that Canada is one of the world's biggest oil producers, and is on track to remain so. Can the Prime Minister tell us how this $34-billion oil investment is good news for the fight against climate change? We are listening.

Mr. Speaker, no measure to combat climate change by the Liberals can make up for Trans Mountain's impact on the climate. None of this government's environmental claims will ever speak as eloquently as its huge pipeline filled with tar sands oil. All the carbon taxes, the heat pumps and the billions of trees planted simply cannot make up for this $34-billion investment in fossil fuels. That said, the Prime Minister should not worry: the Conservatives will keep his lovely pipeline. Does the Prime Minister feel that the commissioning of Trans Mountain is good news for the planet?
