Mr. Speaker, at the same time that the Minister of the Environment was censoring the planet at COP27, Canada was continuing its efforts to turn Newfoundland into an oil Klondike. Five oil companies have been allowed to explore around Bay du Nord for new deposits. The Liberals have the nerve to justify this by saying that we will always need oil for derivative products like oil for bicycle chains and latex gloves. I am not joking. That is what the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Environment said. Can the minister tell us how many jars of Vaseline will have to be produced in order to use up the billions of barrels of oil they want to extract in Newfoundland?
