Mr. Speaker, the Leader of the Opposition refers to the Canada carbon rebate as a phony cheque. At least he recognizes that it exists, which is new from just a few months ago.
The Canada carbon rebate, as investigated by the Parliamentary Budget Officer, puts more money, hundreds of dollars, back in the pockets of eight out of 10 Canadians, the middle class and those working hard to join it, who need support, while we fight climate change, while we reduce emissions and while we grow a stronger economy with good jobs for future generations. He has no plan for the economy and no plan for the future.
