Madam Speaker, we focus a lot on the carbon tax in this place but without looking at the climate crisis and the real impact it has on Canadian farmers. We really want to support the family farm. We know that people living on farms are experiencing suicides. It is an extremely difficult life right now.
Removing carbon pricing on things such as drying grains is one thing. However, if we ignore the biggest economic threat to farmers, we are missing the larger picture. That is the climate crisis, with increased drought, aridification, floods and the kinds of disasters that mean that crops do not come to fruition and farmers do not get money off the fields at the end of the season.
