“Our bill gives people quick help through a tax cut, but we also need major energy projects for the future. I want my colleague to explain why we need both short-term help and long-term plans for our natural resources.”
“Madam Speaker, I want to pick up on the point of short-term and long-term relief. The short-term relief is in Bill C-38, providing the tax break. In the long term, looking at the major projects and recent announcements about Pacific link and LNG phase two, we see that there are projects that can help us into the future. I am wondering if my colleague can provide his thoughts on why it is important for us to have a balance of both short-term and long-term thinking when it comes to the issue of our natural resources.”
