Mr. Speaker, a global surge in oil prices should be a good chance for Canada, home to the fourth-largest oil reserves on earth. However, despite the PM's rhetoric and photo ops, there is not one new cross-border export pipeline to anywhere. The costly Major Projects Office has not approved one yet, and the federal industrial carbon tax drives away Canada's producers like CNRL, which just paused an $8-billion project due to regulatory uncertainty.
Canada can and should be the world's top energy choice. Why will the PM not get out of the way so Canada can fuel allies and power paycheques at home?
