Thank you, Ms. Pohlmann. I appreciate your response.
In my constituency in New Brunswick, some small businesses are really struggling with the carbon tax. The interesting thing about the carbon tax is that carbon emissions actually went up. Not a single climate change or crisis or whatever it's called on whatever day.... It's a different name each day. Nothing has actually transpired that would lead Canadians to believe it's working. Businesses are paying more. People are paying more at the pump. Everybody is paying more and everybody is hurting because of massive inflation during this pandemic. Now, of course, the government is blaming everything on a war that started about a month ago.
I appreciate your being here today. To reiterate and just to wrap up, you agree that the carbon tax is hurting small businesses in Canada and basically they're getting nothing in return. You've called for a rebate. There are other ideas out there, but that one, at least, would serve for the time being.
Can you elaborate at all on how much the added costs are to small businesses? Is there a percentage or a number that you can work with on that?
