Great event last evening.
Hon. Mssrs. Coderre and Kennedy had many important points to make about their role as Natural Resource critics vis a vis oil sands, renewable energy and their role as opposition.
That latter topic was particularly interesting to me. I'm sure they are working as elected members representing their constituents in government. They are learning what their opposition role is as part of liberal democratic government and are being effective in that role.
They are arming themselves with facts and aspirations of all parties to an issue, oil sand petroleum extraction for example, and working to address government's role in that important and strategic economic sector.
Most importantly, they are determined to help the actors in the sector develop policies to help assure the sector's sustainability, including managing its environmental, economic, social and political impacts.
I think we can be proud of the job our federal Liberals are doing on behalf of all Canadians.
