Natural Resources

During question period on natural resources, the Bloc Québécois asked about reports that the government wants to put public money, including Quebec’s share, into new oil pipelines, saying no private company is interested because oil demand is expected to peak soon and the projects would not be profitable. The party argued money should go to clean technology and the energy transition instead, and said Quebeckers do not identify with oil-driven nationalism. The Liberals said the Prime Minister’s economic nationalism means controlling Canada’s own economic levers during trade conflicts, pointing to investments in a wealth fund, natural resources and renewable energy. They also listed investments in Quebec, including mining projects such as Nouveau Monde Graphite and port expansions, saying these would create tens of thousands of jobs.Written by AI from the debate.
