Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague and the amazing work that he does in his riding, the soup-and-salad bowl of Canada. He brings up an excellent point. Just this week, I had a conversation with a potato farmer from P.E.I. who was in tears over the Liberals destroying his family farm as a result of the carbon tax and decisions that are making farming that much more difficult. I had a conversation today with another farmer from B.C., who organized an Ugly Potato Day where he had tens of thousands of people line up for hours in the pouring rain just to collect some misshapen potatoes, turnips, carrots and other vegetables because they cannot afford to put food on the table. These are the issues the House of Commons should be dealing with: the fact that we have two million Canadians lining up at a food bank in one month alone, food insecurity is up 111% , and our farmers at their very wits' end because of the carbon tax is making them uncompetitive and unsustainable.
The debate on this motion could end today if the Liberals would just swallow their pride, table the documents and let Canadians make their decision on the level of scandalousness in those documents.
