“American companies own most of Canada's oil industry. I want the former minister to tell me if he agrees that our energy policy should support Canadian companies instead.”
“Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to put a question to my esteemed colleague, the former minister. My question relates specifically to the oil industry. I have previously given a speech about the ownership of the fossil fuel sector in Canada, which is largely controlled by American interests. I would like to ask the former minister whether he agrees with me that we would be better off shifting our energy policy toward Canadian industries.”
