Mr. Speaker, we know that Canada ranks among the lowest when it comes to fighting climate change and among the highest when it comes to oil subsidies. Basically, this is bad news for the planet. When will the government cancel oil subsidies, invest in renewable energy and do what needs to be done to protect the planet?

Mr. Speaker, at COP27 our government fought hard so the world did not backslide on phasing out fossil fuel subsidies and coal. We reiterated our commitment to phase out fossil fuel subsidies within the next two years. We are taking real action to fight climate change, having already phased out eight tax breaks for the sector, and have committed over $100 billion to climate action. While Conservative politicians want to make polluting free again, we will keep pushing forward on our ambitious and achievable plan.
