Mr. Speaker, that is even worse. The statement went out promising tariffs before they even had a chance to speak. It is kind of like the Prime Minister backing down on buy America and backing down on softwood lumber.
Now let us move to the tariffs the Prime Minister wants to impose on our economy. Quadrupling the carbon tax to 61ยข a litre would cripple our economy. New tax increases on work and energy would do likewise, sending hundreds of billions of dollars south of the border.
Now that Canadians are facing this economic crisis, will the Prime Minister at least cancel his plan to hike taxes so we can save jobs?
