Environment committee motion, there's no question that the Minister of Environment has refused the committee's order to produce the carbon tax modelling data and assumptions and all the components of the third, most recent motion. There seems to be zero ambiguity to me, and the response was crystal clear

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 , spend and destroy 20 years' worth of fiscal stewardship that would have led Canada to be among the elite in the world. That is what Stephen Harper said in 2015. He also said that “imposing carbon [tax] schemes” would “[drive] up the price of everything Canadian families buy—including

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

Cost of Living borrowed money than ever before. Gas prices have increased dramatically, with some areas of the country seeing the highest prices in years, due to the carbon tax, which adds nearly 20¢ a litre. Farmers, the very people who feed Canada and the world, are having to pay thousands

Finance committee . This amendment would allow us to undo the damage going forward with respect to the carbon tax. We wish that we could give the carbon tax relief retroactively and that the last nine years had just been a bad nightmare, but, unfortunately, it is the reality that we live in. We live

Finance committee of carbon-based fuels in order to have people make other choices, and you have no choice but to heat your home with propane, natural gas or oil, it's inelastic. This is just basic economics. My one wish is that we could have an honest conversation about the impact of the carbon tax. I

Philip LawrenceConservative
Finance committee Thank you very much. The confusion—and I'll be generous to my colleagues and call it “confusion”—might stem from the fact that the governor has talked about two different things. One is that he's talked about the annual increase in the carbon tax, of which he has ascribed 0.15

Finance committee , Tiff Macklem, said that 0.6% of inflation was directly responsible for the carbon tax. That was prior to the April 1 increase, so now it's actually 0.8%. That's in the Hansard. That's exactly what Mr. Macklem said. He'll be here, so if you don't believe me, please, I encourage you

Finance committee I just want to reiterate what my colleague, Mr. Lawrence, has said, because I was in the meeting on October 30. All members of the finance committee were there, and the bank governor was very clear. He said that the carbon tax, at $65 a tonne, added 0.6% to inflation

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 barns, chicken barns and pig barns. There is a huge level of cost that goes into running those facilities with the carbon tax, so passing Bill C-234 in its original form would have a huge impact on the Canadian economy. It would have a huge impact on the price of food. Removing
