Madam Speaker, I salute my colleague and thank him for his impassioned speech. He is also known to be very passionate at the Standing Committee on Fisheries and Oceans, of which we are both members. I greatly appreciate the opportunity to work with him. I understand the position of my colleague, who is distraught by the carbon tax and seems to be obsessed with it. I would like him to comment on the Bay du Nord exploration project. The poor got poorer and the already rich oil companies got even richer during the pandemic, and now oil exploration will be allowed in Bay du Nord.

Madam Speaker, we have just witnessed an amazing show put on by the party next to us. I worked a long time in the arts, so I could really appreciate the show put on by our colleague and his fellow members. However, a show is superficial. What I really want to know is how my colleague thinks he can control the damage caused by hurricanes and control the rise in illnesses caused by pollution, using nothing more than reductions obtained by abolishing the carbon tax. Will it be enough, given the total cost of climate change to society?
