Madam Speaker, it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas. We are drifting through some sort of surreal world. This is far from reality.
Earlier I heard my two Liberal Party colleagues boast about the Liberal record on the environment. To set the record straight, I have before me an article from La Presse, from November 7. In terms of greenhouse gas emissions reduction, Canada has the worst record in the G7.
Our Liberal friends boast about their record while the Conservatives propose to do even less when it comes to reducing greenhouse gases. None of this makes sense. We are truly in Christmas holiday mode. We are in some sort of fairy tale.
The International Monetary Fund led a study that found that, in 2022, Canada directly and indirectly gave $50 billion to the oil industry. It gave $50 billion of taxpayer money to an industry that earned $220 billion in profits in 2022.
Does my colleague not think that this money could have been better spent building social housing?
