Madam Speaker, I have two comments and two questions for the member. We know when we talk about Canadians filling up their tanks that the oil and gas companies have price-gouged Canadians for many years. It has been documented in many studies. They jack up prices far beyond what they should normally charge and they keep those prices high even when the price of crude has come down. Does the member agree that price-gouging is not something that oil and gas companies should be doing to Canadian consumers? My second question is around the transition to clean energy and the fact that the federal government plays a role in a just transition and making sure Canadians can go to electric vehicles, which are very much more cost effective. Does the member agree with me that this would be an important initiative for the federal government to undertake?
