Finance committee   tell you that in rural Ontario it's the same thing. The folks in my riding, in part of rural Canada, very much feel like they are alienated and aren't thought about or cared about by this government. You see that even more so in the carve-out from the carbon tax. Yes, I'm glad

Points of Order   to answer the question I had today: Will the Prime Minister continue to send more and more Quebeckers to food banks just to ensure he receives support from the Bloc Québécois, which is constantly looking to drastically increase carbon taxes on the backs of Canadians?

Finance   it wants to keep the Liberals in power for the next two years. The Bloc Québécois is okay with drastically increasing the carbon tax and maintaining inflationary deficits in order to keep the Liberals in power. Voting for the Bloc Québécois is costly. Will the Prime Minister continue

Carbon Pricing   to quadruple their carbon tax in tomorrow's false-hopes update, yes or no?

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, after eight long years, the Governor of the Bank of Canada confirmed that the Prime Minister and his scam of the century, the carbon tax, are not worth the cost. Scrapping this scam would put a massive dent in inflation and help lower interest rates faster, all

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, when I was housing minister, mortgage payments were less than half of what they are now, and rent was less than half of what it is now. Those are the hard realities, and now the Prime Minister's plan is to quadruple the carbon tax. That would increase the cost

The Economy  . We need to reverse this course of misery. In order to consider supporting this mini-budget, the common-sense Conservatives demand that the fall economic statement cancel Liberal plans to quadruple the carbon tax; announce a plan and date to balance the budget to bring down

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C‑56  . Of course, heating oil has had the carbon tax shaved off of it. Propane is what a lot of communities use to heat.

Foreign Affairs committee   in these infrastructure sectors around the world. Since Canada produces relatively little renewable energy infrastructure, it will have a hard time meeting its own climate targets. Europe is working to decarbonize its energy system and paying a lot to do so. That pressure will lead to Europe's carbon

Finance committee  , but it is the lowest, or second-lowest, in the G7, and has been for the past several years. Canada's debt-to-GDP is the lowest in the G7.

Finance committee  Thank you. With respect to the carbon tax, we've been hearing Liberals say for eight years now that people get back more than they pay, but we know now that's simply not true. It has never been true for small business people. Small businesses don't get the climate action

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. In our view when it comes to the carbon tax, our stance is that it should be a revenue-neutral policy mechanism, and fairness is key. One of the things we continue to point to with the carbon tax is that it's another cost that's being added
