Mr. Speaker, the petition I present today is from residents of my constituency of Saanich—Gulf Islands from throughout the southern Gulf Islands. It deals with the issue of the carbon tax. The petitioners are very much in favour of a national price on carbon uniting all provinces and creating a standard fee across the country.
The purpose of the petition is to call on the government to do more and to focus on the post-2022 carbon fee, which has not yet been announced, and to ensure that it rises incrementally to at least $150 a tonne by the year 2030.
