Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to ask Professor McKitrick a question.
Earlier, you were talking about a price on pollution and on carbon. In your presentation, you talked about a study on ethanol that you conducted from 2008 to 2012.
I don't know whether you have the figures, but having quickly looked at the issue, we came to the conclusion that the oil and gas industry had received federal government financial support of about $24 billion in the period from 2017 to 2020. As we studied the very recent allocations in the Department of Natural Resources, we see that, for the 2021-2022 year, an additional amount of $560 million has been set aside for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Knowing that the oil and gas sector is hugely supported by the federal government, do you not believe that there should be a change in strategy if we want to reduce greenhouse gases?
