Mr. Speaker, I am happy to try to work together with people.
The challenge we have with a price on pollution in my mind is that it is an urban-rural divide issue. I come from a rural riding and the carbon tax is going to make life that much more difficult for the many people who live in my riding who struggle to make ends meet as it is, who struggle to pay the rent at the end of the month, who struggle to get to work. We do not have the option of hopping on the TTC subway. We have to drive.
There have to be better solutions than just taxing our way out of the problem. That is a Liberal way. That is certainly not a Conservative way. I do not agree with that. There have to be ways that we can work together to solve the problem and not just tax people.
