Mr. Speaker, I notice that the leader of the official opposition and the Conservative Party tend to link oil production to sovereignty because they share the same vision, the same party and the same organization.
I am not sure that this appeals to Quebeckers in general. When we talk to them about sovereignty, I do not think oil production is the first thing that comes to mind. If they do think about oil production, they may see it as more of a reason to leave this country.
Beyond that, let us look at what the government has done since it was elected. It paused the electric vehicle availability standard, put an end to carbon pricing for individuals and eliminated the electric vehicle subsidy. It introduced Bill C-5, which became law, allowing all kinds of environmental regulations to be circumvented. It even signed a pipeline agreement with Alberta.
This is my question for the opposition leader: Does he not feel as though the fact that the Liberals are eating his lunch is forcing him to be more radical, when he was already radical enough?
