Mr. Speaker, they continue to drag their feet.
There has been another blow to the Prime Minister's carbon tax scheme. A new report from the Parliamentary Budget Officer shows yet again that Canadians are worse off under the tax. Here is what the total bill will be when the NDP-Liberals finish quadrupling this tax: It will cost people in Ontario $1,400; it will cost people $1,500 in Newfoundland and a whopping $2,000 in Saskatchewan. Canadians are already struggling with higher costs, higher grocery prices and higher mortgage rates. The last thing they need is another bill from a useless carbon tax.
If the government is so sure that Canadians support the tax, why not let the people decide in a carbon tax election?
