Madam Speaker, I have the privilege of working with the member as well in our government operations committee, and I find her quite ethical and supportive. On the environment, our government, from day one, supported measures that protect the environment, which is one of the four pillars that this government has been focused on. As it relates to the tax credit for businesses, specifically oil and gas, with a focus on capturing CO2, capturing carbon, this is a best practice and it is being done. I am not sure what the hon. member is talking about in that these are phantom policies; they are not, they are best practices. Also, we are working with industry to make sure that not only do we support it in protecting the environment but also enable the labour force, the Canadians who are in that sector, by supporting them through various labour laws.
