Mr. Speaker, after the Prime Minister took his private jet, burned 105 tonnes of jet fuel and emitted 300 tonnes of greenhouse gases to go down to Brazil, he claimed that Canadians who are opposed to his carbon tax are just confused by disinformation. No, Canadians are not stupid. They know that the Parliamentary Budget Officer has calculated that 100% of middle-class Canadians pay more in the tax than they get back. The Prime Minister already also said, though, that this will be the subject of the next election.
I could not agree more, so why do we not have a carbon tax election now?
