That would make sense, given that the average Canadian is paying $700 more on food than they were last year.
I hear from my constituents all the time that the increase in the carbon tax.... On April 1, the Trudeau government raised the tax by an additional 23% in their plan to quadruple it, which ultimately affects the price of groceries and fuel. That falls into transportation when you're transporting any item.
I hear it from farmers a lot when they're transporting their food from the farm, usually by truck, to processing and then to market which, ultimately, the consumer is paying for.
The Parliamentary Budget Officer has confirmed that the average Canadian family is paying more in carbon taxes than they receive in rebates.
Do you believe that getting rid of the carbon tax would help your organization be able to transport food?
