Mr. Speaker, the bad news is that there are now 1,800 homeless encampments in Ontario. There are 35 in Halifax alone. Two million Canadians are lined up at food banks after nine years of the NDP-Liberal government. We now learn that, on top of the $25-billion annual hit of the first carbon tax to our GDP, the second carbon tax will subtract another $9 billion a year, over $35 billion in lost GDP. That is almost $2,000 per family.
Why will the costly NDP-Liberal government not allow Canadians to vote on the carbon tax?
