Mr. Speaker, I understand that my Conservative colleagues are concerned about inflation, the rising cost of living and the rising cost of fuel. We know that it is cyclical. We know that when there is a geopolitical crisis, the cost of fuel goes up.
However, there is a long-term solution that I never hear my Conservative colleagues talk about. The solution is the electrification of transportation. If we want to be less dependent on fuel and fluctuating prices, the best solution we have is to accelerate the electrification of transportation, particularly in Quebec, where hydroelectricity is abundant and very affordable.
Does my colleague not think that as the government cuts the gas tax, it should focus more on the electrification of transportation?
