Mr. Speaker, the desperation of the Liberals is incredible as they continue to avoid the real question.
Canadian farmers should be applauded for their environmental accomplishments instead of being punished by the carbon taxes from the Liberals. Why is that? The carbon footprint to produce a tonne of canola in Saskatchewan is 67% lower than that of European wheat. Canadian wheat could be transported three and a half times around the world before it has the same global footprint as wheat grown in Europe. However, the Prime Minister wants to punish farmers instead of rewarding them for their environmental stewardship.
Why will the Prime Minister not cancel his carbon tax increase on farmers to make sure we can grow food for Canadians?
