Madam Speaker, it would be funny if it were not so sad. I would like to talk about something that my colleague said in her speech.
She said that the government has failed to keep one of its many promises on the environment, and that is to plant two billion trees. That was a key election promise, but the Liberals have planted maybe 2% or 3% of that amount. She also said that, in the meantime, the government has neglected the oil industry or subjected it to uncertainty.
How can she say such a thing in the House?
According to a study by the International Monetary Fund, in 2022, Canada directly and indirectly invested $50 billion in the oil industry. If the Liberal government has failed on environmental issues over the past nine years, then I can say that people in my riding, particularly those who are concerned about the fight against climate change, are absolutely terrified, and I am choosing my words carefully here, at the idea of the Conservatives taking power.
