How are we going to know what impact that has on the greenhouse gas emissions? How are we going to hold everybody accountable for doing their part?

I choose the most qualified people. We need to run more women in parties in ridings where they can be elected. That's what I really focused on, so that we have more women to select for cabinet, potentially.

I'm not a believer that you should set quotas for these things, because I think what happens is no matter how qualified the woman is who gets the job, people will say she [Hillary Clinton] shouldn't have gotten it. She only got it because she's a woman. That is the problem with quotas.

I hope that people will be held accountable, even if accountability just means naming it and letting the citizens of the country know where you're at. I think that has a huge impact on the way people think.

We do need the federal government to share information with us. We need local governments to increase supply. We need affordable places for people to live.

We've excused all houses up to $750,000 from our property-purchase tax. We have more to do. There are other measures we intend to take to try and address housing affordability. There are things we can do. There are limits to it and we can't do it by ourselves.

Our climate leadership team has recommended it go up and I would say there's always going to be upward pressure to raise the carbon tax. Remember, we're already double what the only other province who has a carbon tax is at right now, Quebec - they peg it at about $15 a tonne.
