Mr. Speaker, that is not at all the case.
Of course, it was our government that put in place the Fairness at the Pumps Act. As a result of it passing and bringing into force that effective legislation, 33 individuals and 7 companies have been found guilty for their role in a gasoline price fixing conspiracy in the province of Quebec, totalling $3 million in fines. Six of these individuals have been sentenced to jail time.
We do have legislation. We have empowered the Competition Bureau. When these allegations are proven to be true, because of our laws, action is taken.
