Income Tax Act First reading of Bill C-310. The bill proposes to increase the income tax credit for volunteer firefighters and search and rescue responders from $3,000 to $10,000, aiming to support recruitment, retention, and recognize their essential service. 300 words.
Opposition Motion—Carbon Tax Members debate a Conservative motion to cancel the carbon tax on food inputs and production to address rising grocery costs and support farmers. Conservatives argue the tax significantly increases expenses for farms and families, contributing to record food bank usage and inflation. Liberals defend carbon pricing as an essential climate tool, citing global factors for inflation, and highlight affordability measures and rebates. The Bloc Québécois and NDP criticize both parties' climate records, support targeted farmer relief like Bill C-234, and call for an excess profits tax on large corporations. 45100 words, 5 hours in 2 segments: 1 2.

The motion also calls for a committee review of hate crimes. Speakers from all parties acknowledge the surge in anti-Asian racism, particularly during COVID-19, and Canada's history of discriminatory policies.
