Mr. Speaker, we must work with everyone to have a fair transition towards a clean economy. The fact remains that every sector has a role to play in reducing pollution and achieving net zero, oil and gas in particular. Our government has not hesitated to say that the oil sector must do more.

Mr. Speaker, Canada's strategy at COP27 is exactly the same as Saudi Arabia's. They both showed up saying that they will continue to increase oil production. They both invited the oil industry to discuss how their oil is “greener than green” thanks to carbon capture and storage. Both used COP27 to promote sales of oil and gas while boasting about their environmental record. Was it the government's intention all along to tell the whole world that Canada, like Saudi Arabia, is an oil monarchy?
