Mr.
Speaker, my question to the
Premier is in regard to his statement in regard to the Western Premiers’ Conference he just attended. There were a few issues in there in regard to the conference itself, but more importantly, there was lot of discussion around energy — looking at ways of bringing down energy and looking at alternative energies that are out there. I’d like to ask the Premier: exactly what type of responses did we get? Are those responses going to be put by way of ideas and sent to the federal government, to ask them for certain funding? You talk about hydro; you talk about wind energy; you talk about other initiatives. I’d like to ask the Premier: what’s the next step in regard to these issues that were discussed at the western Premiers’ meeting? Where do they go next? Also, when can we see some results on those discussions?
