Thank you for your response. You're talking about examples. However, I want to get down to the specifics.
You spoke about green taxation. The Bloc Québécois has already promoted green finance on a number of occasions. It's simple. It's about giving companies incentives to stop investing in oil and gas. We all know that money is key. When we look at the money, we see that the big Canadian banks have invested hundreds of billions of dollars in oil and gas in recent years.
This isn't about reinventing the wheel. I'll use the example of Norway. In 2019, it had already announced its plans to permanently move away from fossil fuels through its sovereign wealth fund. Studies also found that, if this fund had disposed of its fossil fuel assets a number of years earlier, it would not only have contributed significantly to achieving the goals of the Paris agreement, it would also have been cost‑effective.
I want you to elaborate on the green economy, but especially on green taxation and the potential benefits if the federal government really decides to take the plunge.
