Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources made the absurd promise that Canada would “do its part” to help stabilize global oil markets, but Canada cannot do its part because after a decade of Liberal energy policies, we do not have a strategic oil reserve. When allies need energy and markets need stability, Canada has nothing to offer but the minister's promises.
Conservatives have proposed a strategic reserve to fuel our allies abroad and give Canada real leverage, especially at times like these, so will the Liberals adopt our plan so Canada can be stronger at home and more reliable abroad?
