Replying to Marilène Gill (Bloc Québécois)

“Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his bill. I will have an opportunity to talk about it a little later. I have a question about oil and gas companies, which already receive tons of investment tax credits. Does my colleague believe that these companies would also be included and that they would also be able to benefit from the tax credit he is proposing in his bill?”
