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

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

The Budget   not think that life is becoming more affordable. Common-sense Conservatives have three demands to fix the budget and bring Canadians the relief that they desperately need. First, we say to axe the carbon tax on farmers and food by immediately passing Bill C-234 in its original

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

The Budget   balanced and get rid of all these carbon taxes.

The Budget   not gone back to their prepandemic levels. Many of them incurred a lot of debt during that time and are still not able to pay it off. They are seeing just a continual increase in costs. They have the carbon tax, which is increasing the cost of everything that is transported. I am

The Budget   standards. They chose together to increase taxes, including the carbon tax, excise tax and payroll tax. What are the results of the Liberals being propped up by the NDP? It is a cost of living crisis that is destroying the spending power of working-class families and causing a record

The Economy  . No one can afford to live anymore. His record deficits have driven interest rates sky-high, and the dream of home ownership is simply dead. Canadians are struggling to stay afloat, and what does the Prime Minister offer? He throws them an anvil by raising the carbon tax a whopping 23

The Budget   it comes to the doubling of the rural top-up, sure, it is fantastic that more money is going to people, but it still does not deal with the problem that the government is taking the money away from people and then giving it back to them. When we look at the buried-in costs of the carbon

The Budget   finance minister and her fiscally unaware boss a bad memory. The common-sense Conservative plan will axe the carbon tax, balance the budget and build homes, not bureaucracy, to bring lower prices to Canadians. Even a fifth grader knows that the Liberal government is not worth the cost.

Finance   in this year, due, in large part, to the Liberals' spending addiction that drives up inflation and their punitive carbon tax. Housing is a crisis that will continue to worsen as long as the government is in power. Put aside the fancy photo ops and the empty promises. The Bank of Canada

The Budget   spending, deeper debt and deficits and, of course, the harmful carbon tax. With these and other policies, Liberals are fuelling inflation and an affordability crisis, pushing middle-class aspirations even further out of the reach of many. Struggling families cannot afford more

The Budget  Madam Speaker, the member opposite spoke a lot about the cost of food. One thing that the Conservatives wanted to see ahead of the budget was a plan to immediately pass Bill C-234 in its original form, which would support farmers and farm families by taking the carbon tax off

The Budget   of emergency in York—Simcoe. That brings me to rural Canada. I am from a rural riding. Of all things, now the government is actually taking our money in York—Simcoe because it has classified us as Toronto under the goofy carbon tax regime. The Chippewas of Georgina Island in my riding

Fruit and Vegetable Industry  , nutritious food for their families. I was proud to see the number, quality and quantity of exhibitors from Chatham-Kent—Leamington front and centre at the show, but I also heard about the severe challenges the industry is facing, about how the Prime Minister's carbon tax is resulting
