Mr. Speaker, I think there are a couple of pieces of information that I need to emphasize. First of all, Imperial Oil recently announced that the decision to construct would be made in 2013. The earliest if gas would flow would be in 2018 if it was a positive decision. The reasons they gave for the delay was the long delay caused by the regulatory process and also the lack of a fiscal arrangement with the federal government.

In the recent federal throne speech and the recent federal budget, the federal government had indicated that they support the Mackenzie Gas Pipeline as long as it was commercially viable and that it met all of the regulatory requirements that the governments would respond to.

We will continue to do our part to focus on dealing with the response from the Joint Review Panel report and also the fiscal arrangements is the most important thing. Proponents have indicated that would be the main rush now for making a positive decision to construction. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
