Madam Speaker, we know that the NDP-Liberal carbon tax is an expensive scam. Saskatchewanians are not receiving back more than they pay into it. We know that the Liberals have failed to meet every single one of their own environmental targets, but what they have unfortunately succeeded in doing is impoverishing Canadians.
The member on the other side says that food is not taxed, but he obviously does not understand how the supply chain works, especially when food is going into rural and remote communities. For anything that needs to be shipped by train, truck or car, there is a carbon tax on the fuel that is used for that. It is simply untrue to say that food is not taxed, let alone all other goods and services. When we are going to the grocery store, we are paying GST on diapers, for example.
I would just suggest that the member look at the facts. Carbon tax is on the whole of the supply chain, from the seed to the store.
