Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Madam Speaker, I know the member opposite, my colleague from Manitoba, was talking about how great the economy is. In front of me, I have a document showing data published by the International Monetary Fund in April. It is a table entitled “The U.S. Economy is Outperforming Those of Other G7 Countries.”

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, Larry the plumber from Winnipeg told the finance committee this morning that the Liberal change to the capital gains tax is not fair to his generation. He is not wealthy. He does not have a gold-plated public sector pension or a trust fund to fall back on, like the Prime Minister—

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, Larry the plumber from Winnipeg told the finance committee this morning that the Liberal change to the capital gains tax is not fair to his generation. He is not wealthy. He does not have a gold-plated public sector pension or a trust fund to fall back on, like the Prime Minister.

Questions on the Order Paper  With regard to the claim on page 29 of the 2024 budget document entitled “Tax Measures: Supplementary Information,” that the federal government returns more than 90% of direct proceeds from the fuel charge to individuals through the Canada Carbon Rebate: (a) what indirect or other proceeds from the carbon tax does the government receive; (b) how much money was received by the government in the last fiscal year from each of the indirect or other proceeds listed in (a); and (c) if the government does not track how much revenue it receives in indirect or other proceeds from the carbon tax, (i) why not, (ii) why does it make claims about people benefitting from the carbon tax knowing that it does not track this data?

Diversity and Inclusion  Mr. Speaker, anti-Semitism has become a plague on university campuses. Hamas sympathizers camping out at McGill are promoting the “revolutionary summer program”, featuring images of kaffiyeh-clad fighters brandishing machine guns. It is appalling. Summer camp used to be about campfires and canoeing.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I do agree with the member's statement. The reality is that the truth does not help the Liberals. The Liberal government has been lying to Canadians for two years. It is a tangled web that gets woven when it lies to Canadians for two years, and its own data comes out and shows that it has been lying—

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, that is all fair, but the truth is that the Liberal government has not been telling the truth to Canadians. The Prime Minister has misled Canadians for years. The Liberals have data that shows he has been misleading Canadians. That is what this is about. The Liberals need to come clean.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I have to say that hearing that that member has done the math does not give me a lot of comfort. The reality is, I wish he would give us the information he is talking about. The CBC's access to information request was denied. The Liberal government released pieces of information that supports its narrative.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, while I appreciate the question from the member, what we are talking about here today is a very fundamental obligation of a government to the people. That obligation is to always tell them the truth, and this motion is trying to get at the truth. It is time for the government to stop stonewalling Canadians, stop gaslighting Canadians and tell us what the data says.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I am sure it says in the Standing Orders somewhere that the question should be about the motion. I will leave that question for another day.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, the Prime Minister was booed off the stage. Canadians know it is not true. All they have to do is look at their energy bills. They know that when we tax the farmers who grow the food, the truckers who ship the food and the grocers who sell the food, the food costs more.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I think the Liberals think they got ahead of this and cut us off at the pass. However, the fact is that nothing has really changed. The carbon tax cover-up continues, and I will tell everyone why. The Liberals across the aisle have big smiles on their faces, thinking they sure pulled one over on the Conservatives.

Taxation  Mr. Speaker, the finance minister is scrambling to bring in yet another tax hike to pay for uncontrolled inflationary spending. After nine years of the NDP-Liberal government, it is not worth the cost of falling standards of living. As a result of Liberal economic vandalism, capital has been driven out of Canada, and Canadians are worse off.

Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. The statement that the member for Timmins—James Bay was supported by all parliamentarians is not true. I would ask the member to correct the record and withdraw that remark.

Carbon Tax  Mr. Speaker, on Monday, the Prime Minister's own budget watchdog told the finance committee that the government has a secret economic impact analysis that confirms his conclusion that Canadians pay more than they get back in phony carbon rebate cheques. However, the Prime Minister has put a gag order on the Parliamentary Budget Officer, muzzling him from speaking about the secret report, and covering up the truth.
