Mr. Speaker, the minister has some nerve talking about steel.
I have met with steelworkers and those in the steel industry. They have said that, if the Liberals quadruple the carbon tax like they plan to, there will not be a single steel plant left in the country.
That is the minister's economic record. That is what he is doing to Canadians. The carbon tax is not an environmental plan. It is a tax plan that is blowing a $35-billion hole in the Canadian economy every year.
Workers are bringing home less, yet they are paying more. It is time for a change. Why do the Liberals not call a carbon tax election to let Canadians decide?
