Madam Speaker, the government's approach to carbon pricing pollution is working, and any reference to the contrary is false. Industries are encouraged to become more efficient, and they are using cleaner technologies. The member opposite says they are all for technology and not for pricing carbon, but they work hand in hand, and any economist worth their salt would say the exact same. Indeed, Preston Manning, a Conservative economist worth his salt, says the exact same thing.
Another prominent Conservative, who I am privileged to be able to use the name of in the House now, Erin O'Toole, campaigned just recently, back in 2021, on a promise to price pollution, just as every other Conservative on that side did. I recall when my colleague from eastern Ontario, my friend, campaigned alongside Erin O'Toole and was proud of his carbon pricing plan and was proud of the fact that a Conservative stood up and said it is important to fight climate change. We wish that more Conservatives would.
