Madam Speaker, it is critical. If members do not believe me, they should ask the farmers. The farmers will tell us that.
My colleague made reference to the issue of the carbon rebate and the carbon tax. What I would highlight are two quick points.
Every member of the Conservative Party across the way who campaigned in the last election voted in favour of and campaigned on a price on pollution. A price on pollution is a carbon tax. In fairness, they have flip-flopped a few times on it, but in the last federal election that was their official position. It is somewhat interesting now that they are starting to criticize others who have changed their opinions. All they need to do is reflect on their own position over the years.
I would suggest that Conservatives have an obligation to Canadians to tell them what they would do to deal with the climate situation, because obviously the far right does not take that into consideration. It is unfortunate, because many farmers are also concerned.
