It's a fact that Canada is a major oil and gas producer. The energy transition isn't a revolution. It's something that will happen over time. There will be less and less government support and more and more investment in clean and renewable energy sources. Federal funding for those sectors has quintupled in the past few years. You may tell me we started off from not much after 10 years of Conservative government, but the fact remains that we're committed to the energy transition.
I don't agree with you on carbon capture and storage. It won't solve all our problems, but even the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the International Energy Agency refer to it as an essential technology in achieving our carbon neutrality objectives.
As for fossil fuel subsidies, it's really quite simple. According to the World Trade Organisation, we have to wonder whether those subsidies favour one sector over others. However, we've eliminated all direct subsidies to the oil and gas industry. Carbon capture and storage is good for steel, it's good for cement, and it's good for oil and gas too, but it isn't a subsidy that's intended for any single sector.
I never refer to reducing the the intensity of our emissions; I talk about reducing our emissions in absolute terms, and that's what we're doing.
