Madam Speaker, as the day draws to an end, I must say I am a little disappointed. I have repeatedly asked some of my Conservative and Liberal colleagues to explain the logic behind wanting to build more oil and gas infrastructure, especially since we know full well that 60% of oil-producing companies are owned by American investors. They have made record profits in recent years, and 60% of those record profits are going into the coffers of American companies.
How can investing in these companies be seen as a way to reduce our dependence on Americans and respond to the tariff crisis?
Perhaps my colleague can enlighten me on this.
