Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister continues to be in the way of Canadians. He wants to bring in a 41¢-a-litre tax on Nova Scotians, which he claims will help the environment. Meanwhile, a project that would have actually helped the environment, the sustainable marine project, would have used tidal energy, the waves of the ocean, to generate electricity. That project has been cancelled because the Prime Minister's federal bureaucracy was too slow and incompetent to approve it. Now the company is getting up and leaving. How does this sound? Why does the Prime Minister not get out of the way of Nova Scotians, let them generate clean electricity, and cancel the carbon tax that is on their backs?
