Opposition Motion—Carbon Tax on Farmers, First Nations and Families Members debate a Conservative motion to repeal the carbon tax on farmers, First Nations, and families, citing rising cost of living and food bank use.

Karina Gould Liberal Burlington, ON
Mr. Speaker, seeing as we have been voting for almost 28 hours, I thought this time we could try something a little different. Instead of adding another $70,000 on the clock as the tax-and-spend Conservatives want to do, I thought perhaps we could save taxpayers money, which I thought the Conservatives would be for but it turns out they are not, and could try passing this on division.

Kerry-Lynne Findlay Conservative South Surrey—White Rock, BC
Mr. Speaker, all these votes could have been avoided if the government had simply taken the carbon tax off farmers, families struggling to heat their homes, and first nations.
We would like a recorded vote, because we believe that Canadians understand exactly why we are here.

Alexis Brunelle-Duceppe Bloc Lac-Saint-Jean, QC
Mr. Speaker, I think that the past 31 hours have shown that Quebec would be much better off if it were a country on its own. I therefore move that we stop wasting Quebeckers' and Canadians' money this evening and that we adopt the next motion on division.

The Speaker Greg Fergus
Unfortunately, we have not yet reached that point.
The committee of the whole has considered Bill C‑60 and has directed me to report the same without amendment.
