Mr. Speaker, the documents reveal just how much pain the carbon tax inflicts on Canadians. They will be paying more than $800 million just to administer the carbon tax. Not only have the costs skyrocketed, but the number of bureaucrats just to manage this scam has doubled. Let us put that in perspective. Farmers will pay $1 billion in carbon taxes by 2030, so the Prime Minister is putting the family farm at risk just to feed his bloated bureaucracy. If he really feels that Canadian families want to pay the carbon tax over feeding their own kids, he should call a carbon tax election and let us find out.
In the House of Commons on November 19th, 2024. See this statement in context.
