“A Canadian company wants to ship 250,000 barrels of oil a day to Asia through British Columbia. This would create Canadian jobs and end our reliance on the U.S. The government's ban on oil exports is stopping it. I want the government to end this ban so we can sell Canadian oil to the world.”

“Mr. Speaker, B.C.’s new Conservative premier wants to build out ports and rail to get Canadian energy to global markets. Strathcona Resources proposes to ship 250,000 barrels of Canadian oil a day through Prince Rupert. It is a Canadian company, Canadian oil, Canadian jobs and a direct deepwater route to Asia, but the Liberals’ job-killing Canadian oil exports ban blocks it. Will the Liberals finally get out of the way, repeal Bill C-48, cut dependence on the U.S. and let Canadians sell Canadian oil to the world?”

“The Liberals are hurting Canada by stopping our energy exports. Smaller companies have shut down and big foreign companies took their money elsewhere. I want the government to support our plan to end the oil shipping ban so Canada can export its oil.”

“Mr. Speaker, no other major energy producer in the world derails and stops its own exports like the Liberals do to Canada. During the last antidevelopment decade, smaller companies got killed. Multinationals moved investment out but got golden handshakes from the Liberals. Canadian-owned Strathcona invested more in Canada and does not want tax dollars. If the Liberals mean a single word about making Canada an energy superpower, will they support the Conservative plan to repeal their shipping ban to export Canadian oil so Canada can be self-reliant, affordable and united?”

“The government should end the oil tanker ban. Keeping the ban traps our oil, hurts our dollar, and forces us to sell oil cheaply to the United States. A private company wants to move oil by rail through Prince Rupert. The government should allow this plan so Canada can be energy independent.”

“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals like to talk a big game when it comes to dealing with the United States, yet they refuse to lift the ideological and unscientific tanker ban that land-locks Canadian resources and depresses the Canadian dollar, giving our oil away on the cheap to the Trump administration while Canadians struggle with the cost of living crisis here at home. However, there is now a plan, a private sector proposal, to export Canadian oil by rail through Prince Rupert. Will the Liberal government finally get out of the way, repeal the tanker ban and allow this country, Canada, to achieve true energy independence from the United States?”
