Madam Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech, which I thought was very clear. I would like to ask him for some clarification so I can better understand where the Conservatives are coming from.

Does my colleague believe that this 2.2¢ increase has a greater impact on the price of gas than the war in Ukraine?
