Madam Speaker, now a member of the NDP is yelling at me, saying that this is capitalism. That is what it is. What is incredible is that it has been under the co-operation with the NDP that we have seen the reduction in the size of the pie and the amount that each person gets to eat. The experiment has gone completely off the rails.
It has been unbelievable to watch the New Democrats agree time and time again, even as they see the evidence of everybody having to live with less. The New Democrats cheer it on and keep supporting it. New Democrats continue to see the people who live within their communities struggle more and more. What the New Democrats have done time and time again is double down. They say, “Tax the people more. Take more from the people who live on limited incomes.” What the NDP has been cheerleading for is an increase, a quadrupling, of the carbon tax in this country.
