The climate change performance of Canada and Canadian industries is important.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8712377\" data-originallang=\"en\">It is also really important to recognize that the oil and gas sector is the one that is continually increasing its emissions, and we are challenging the oil and gas industry with a pollution cap. We are asking it to invest some of its astonishing $66 billion in profit in making its products more efficient and lowering the carbon intensity of its oil. That is a good challenge.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8712376\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue de sa question qui est tr\u00e8s importante. La performance du Canada et des industries canadiennes en mati\u00e8re de changement climatique est importante.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8712377\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il est \u00e9galement tr\u00e8s important d'admettre que le secteur p\u00e9trolier et gazier est le seul secteur dont les \u00e9missions ne cessent d'augmenter, et c'est pourquoi nous imposons un plafonnement de la pollution \u00e0 cette industrie. Nous lui demandons d'investir une partie de ses profits astronomiques de 66 milliards de dollars afin de rendre ses produits plus efficaces et de r\u00e9duire l'intensit\u00e9 carbonique de son p\u00e9trole. C'est un bon d\u00e9fi.</p>"
