Mr. Speaker, our price on pollution not only decreases emissions and helps fight climate change, but grows the economy and investments and puts more money in the pockets of middle-class Canadians from coast to coast to coast. Indeed, what we have seen from the Parliamentary Budget Officer is that the Canada carbon rebate puts more money in the pockets of Canadian families than it costs them in the federal price on pollution. That is exactly what the Leader of the Opposition wants to cut. He wants to cut affordability for Canadians. He wants to cut the fight against climate change. That is not how we build a strong future.
