Scheer laid out his party’s vision for Canada’s future resource
development.
There were short-term fixes, but also a long-term
pitch for a national energy corridor that Scheer said he believes

telecommunications and potentially anything else that runs along the
ground,” he said.
Scheer compared his big idea to another big one from another century.
