Mr. Chair, let me go then to what I asked the minister about, which is the memo. In the memo the minister is supposed to be preparing for his Prime Minister for a promise his Prime Minister made in Pittsburgh for the G20. He is supposed to deliver within 25 days a detailed memorandum in advance of the G20 of what fossil fuel subsidies he proposes to be phased out from Canada.
Could he stand here tonight and tell the clients of his constituents, the oil and gas and energy companies in the country that report directly to him statutorily, could he tell those companies tonight exactly what fossil fuel subsidies he has written to the Prime Minister to phase out, or is he in abdication of his responsibility as put forward in the memo from the deputy minister of Finance Canada?
