Madam Speaker, one of the bigger challenges we have is that we are really at a competitive disadvantage. I know our leader has talked about this, and I think we need to continue to do that. When we look at what we are spending on carbon taxes versus the rest of the world, including the U.S., we can see that we are putting ourselves at an unnecessary disadvantage. The U.S. is one of our neighbours that we do a lot of trade with.
This is one of the reasons why we need to axe the carbon tax. When we think about how we charge the tax on the people who grow the food or produce something, if we charge the tax on the people who transport it and then the consumer who pays it, we will always be at a competitive disadvantage vis-à-vis every other country that does not have a carbon tax.
