Mr. Speaker, let me be 100% clear, because unfortunately the party opposite does not understand.
We understand that we need to put a price on emissions. We have two ways to do this. We can do it through a direct price, or we can do it through a cap-and-trade system. We have 80% of Canadians who already live in a jurisdiction where there is a price on carbon. It is up to the provinces to decide which way they want to do it and what they would like to do with the revenues. They can give it back as a tax cut to consumers in their province or to businesses.
However, this is the way forward. The government is taking leadership because that is what Canadians expect.
