Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his first speech on the budget. He talked about recklessness and waste. I agree with him on that and on several other points. I would like to know whether he shares my opinion on one thing in particular.
We already knew that oil companies were getting tax credits to the tune of $83 billion until 2035. This budget extends those credits until 2040. Now, oil companies will be getting $100 billion in the form of tax credits.
Is that not a fine example of the government's wastefulness and recklessness? What does my colleague think?
