Mr. Speaker, that question is very simple. The oil sector does not need corporate welfare. It is extremely profitable if companies are allowed to operate. The problem is not a lack of money. The product these companies produce is extremely valuable. The problem is the government barriers that are preventing these companies from producing this resource. Let us therefore issue permits within six months for pipelines and new projects. Let us axe the industrial carbon tax and allow oil companies to pay more to help fund health care for all Canadians, including Quebeckers.
They do not need corporate welfare. Instead, they need the government to get out of the way. The Liberals want to tax, regulate and ultimately subsidize oil companies. We do not want any of that. We simply want to unleash the potential of our investors and workers so they can thrive in the free market.
