I'm from Alberta, and obviously it's a project that is very important to my province, but I believe it's an important project in the complete national interests. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5928116\" data-originallang=\"en\">As you are from Newfoundland, I want to get your perspective on that, why you believe that project is in the national interest and why it's so important to this country.</p>",
