Mr. Speaker, my impression is that we do not share a common understanding of the situation. If I understand correctly, the question is whether tax rebates go directly to consumers. My understanding of the oil market is that the base price is determined by New York Harbor and by global market forces. Then taxes are added. For each distribution centre, there is a base nominal price on oil that is set every day. Various applicable taxes are then added, followed by the GST. In my opinion, yes, the savings go directly to consumers.
