The carbon tax is increased. Inflation is getting out of control, and the cost of living crisis is getting out of control

Committees of the House   1, with a 23% increase of the punitive carbon tax coupled with a hike in rent. It is also coupled with a government that has spent untold amounts of money building the size of government, growing the bureaucracy, but seeing fit to actually make cuts to the Canadian Armed Forces

Committees of the House   goes up, along with the carbon tax. I am disappointed that we need to have this debate today.

April 1 came and the rent went up. Along with the higher rents, our fighting forces also had to pay the higher Liberal carbon tax

Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Atlantic Accord Implementation Act   out of 10 premiers were against raising the carbon tax on April 1. The NDP House leader just said that, if premiers came together and agreed, we should pass that bill because premiers know what is best for their provinces. Ironically, I would ask him the same question about

Birthday Congratulations  Mr. Speaker, absurd, asinine, foolish, bonkers and deranged are synonyms for wacko, and they are exactly the correct adjectives to describe nine years of the Prime Minister's policies and behaviours. Hiking the carbon tax to 61¢ a litre is wacko. Letting people smoke meth next

Carbon Pricing  That is misinformation, indeed, Madam Speaker. I would invite my hon. colleague to fill the galleries of this hallowed chamber with the farmers who support the carbon tax. I have yet to meet one. The member referenced the farmers in his rebuttal to me. Let me bring up Highline

Carbon Pricing   have continually and steadily increased, which proves that this carbon tax is not working. Can the member actually show the information? The Minister of Environment did not say they are collecting any data to prove that emissions are lowering or that the carbon tax is actually

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, I do appreciate the opportunity to expand a bit more on a question I asked on February 8. I ended that opportunity with a request of the government to axe the carbon tax. Let me first set the context of the situation. Food inflation at the time had been running

Climate Change  Mr. Speaker, no measure to combat climate change by the Liberals can make up for Trans Mountain's impact on the climate. None of this government's environmental claims will ever speak as eloquently as its huge pipeline filled with tar sands oil. All the carbon taxes, the heat

Finance   and Canada's economy weaker. That is why common-sense Conservatives moved a motion at the finance committee to have Mark Carney testify. When carbon tax Carney is coronated as Liberal leader, Canadians should be terrified of his wacko policies to continue to quadruple the carbon tax

Carbon Pricing   talked about this a number of times. It is the electricity that is used, not the diesel and not the natural gas. Irrigation has a huge use of electricity. One farmer who has an operation showed me the bills, and he is up to $100,000 in carbon tax. There is a small rink in a rural
