Mr. Speaker, I understand that the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources has been in office for a year, but the minister who just answered that question has been here for 10 years. For 10 years, he and his fellow ministers have snubbed Canadian oil. We are now paying the price. All Canadians are paying the price.
There is also food inflation. Sadly, Canada, a major G7 country, has the worst food inflation at 7.3%. What is the result? Families in Saint‑Georges, in Beauce, will go buy groceries 50 kilometres away in Jackman, where they are 7.3% less expensive.
Why do Canadians have to pay more at the grocery store?
