They continue to show how thin-skinned they are.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7961965\" data-originallang=\"en\">My honourable friend was talking about oil and gas profits. He made a point about all the wealth companies are generating and asked what they are doing with it. They are not investing in workers. They are firing workers. They are doing stock buybacks. They are doing dividend payouts.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7961966\" data-originallang=\"en\">Can my hon. colleague talk about that? It seems to me that rather than standing on the side of workers, we are hearing Conservatives parrot what the CEOs of the oil and gas industry say. I am wondering if he could expand on that.</p>",

Ils continuent de montrer \u00e0 quel point ils sont susceptibles.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7961965\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mon coll\u00e8gue parlait des profits dans le secteur p\u00e9trolier et gazier. Il a parl\u00e9 de toute la richesse que les entreprises g\u00e9n\u00e8rent et il a demand\u00e9 ce qu\u2019elles en faisaient. Elles n\u2019investissent pas dans les travailleurs. Non, elles licencient des travailleurs, elles rach\u00e8tent des actions et elles versent des dividendes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7961966\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mon coll\u00e8gue peut-il en parler? J'ai l'impression qu\u2019au lieu de se ranger du c\u00f4t\u00e9 des travailleurs, les conservateurs se font les perroquets des PDG de l\u2019industrie p\u00e9troli\u00e8re et gazi\u00e8re. Je me demande si mon coll\u00e8gue pourrait nous en dire davantage \u00e0 ce sujet.</p>"
