In the little speaking time I have left, I want to point out that the infrastructure enabling electricity trade with the United States was paid for by Hydro-Québec without federal government support. It was Hydro-Québec that decided to invest in the transmission lines that allow us to send electricity to the United States.
Furthermore, you need to back up your claims by comparing the price paid for what we import with the price paid for what we export.
It's important to understand that Hydro-Québec's reservoirs act as a massive battery. When we import electricity at 5¢ per kilowatt-hour, we fill our reservoirs, and during peak periods, we export electricity at 15¢ per kilowatt-hour. So, you have to understand this dynamic. You can't just look at the volumes of electricity imported from the United States. You also have to understand Hydro-Québec's strategy. You might benefit from talking to these people, who are very aware of this situation, which often works to their advantage.
In the oil sector, it's the opposite. The profits made in the oil sector are mostly injected into the U.S. economy. That's what I find highly questionable. Currently, from a geopolitical standpoint, the country with which we have the most difficulties is the United States. They're waging a relentless trade war against us, one that doesn't actually affect the energy sector. However, they're not good economic partners. So, the fact that I'm going to be paying for gas and oil infrastructure that will benefit the United States—well, that leaves me perplexed.
