Was there any relief for that? No, there was not. We use propane and natural gas, which are better than diesel, but the cost has gone up so much because of the carbon

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  , in this case, the GST, is a good way to increase affordability, much as I was shocked to see the Liberal government admit that removing its carbon tax on home heating oil is also a good way to increase affordability. If only it would remove its carbon tax on propane and natural gas

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  . Number one is the carbon tax. I do not think that the oil and gas industry actually needs to spend all of that money on lobbying the federal government, because it already has a political party that does it for free. The Conservative Party's members stand in this place and, at every

First, they started talking about how it was a woke free trade deal. They started out talking about everything but a carbon tax. They only started

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56   is that I have gone to OECD meetings in Europe where they were discussing the concept of the carbon tax. The major push from this country was that those countries must make sure to put their stamp on Canada's carbon tax. That happened both in Berlin when I was there and in Birmingham two

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Madam Speaker, the one thing I did not hear the member talk about was a carbon tax. I know he is a really big fan of the carbon tax, because when he was in the provincial legislature in B.C., he not only voted in favour of it, but he also spoke very highly of it. He said

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Madam Speaker, maybe he was a Liberal back then. I do not know. Maybe he could inform me why he is against the carbon tax. Why is he hypocritical?

Government Business No. 30—Proceedings on Bill C-56  Madam Speaker, I am proof that there can be redemption. If I can see the light, there is hope for the Liberal Party.
