Mr. Douglas (Nanaimo-Cowichan-The Islands):
Mr. Speaker, the minister indicated his willingness to answer questions before he concluded his speech. 1 want to ask him about his statement that Petro-Canada has the power to do the things which have been proposed in the amendment put forward by my colleague, the hon. member for Sault Ste. Marie. That proposal calls for Petro-Canada to be the sole importer of oil. In view of the fact that the national petroleum corporation act under which Petro-Canada was set up gives Petro-Canada the power to be an importer of oil but not the sole importer of oil, what is the basis for the minister's contention that the power to make Petro-Canada the sole importer of oil already exists on the statute books of this country?
