Mr. Speaker, I am disappointed to find that, when members are speaking French in the House, English-speaking members often speak louder than those speaking French. This happened during my colleague's speech, and it is happening at this very moment as I prepare to ask a question. This occurs on both sides of the House. It is a deeply saddening situation.
Considering the current spike in gas prices, should we not be doing more to limit our dependence on the oil economy, such as by expanding the electrification of transportation and by doing more than what is currently being done?
