Madam Speaker, the outgoing member for Kings—Hants, on November 28, 2022, to The Laker News, a local paper, said, “They are trying to play a bit of boogeyman on the federal government in relation to carbon [tax] pricing right now.” That is what he said about Premier Houston's party in Nova Scotia. Fast-forward to September 15. The CBC headline reads, “Atlantic Liberal MPs press [the Prime Minister] for rural carbon tax carve-out.”
What is it going to be? Is it going to be support for his constituents by voting for our motion, or is he going to be with the boogeyman?
