Mr. Speaker, my colleague raised an extremely important point. I am surprised to see that members from all parties do not agree with us that a carbon tax rebate was issued even though the tax was never paid. Just before the election campaign, suddenly everyone across Canada received a cheque, except the people in Quebec and British Columbia, because those two provinces do not pay the carbon tax. That tax was never paid, and the rebate was issued before any payment had taken place. That represents $814 million that Quebec paid to the rest of Canada through its taxes during the federal election.
I would like my colleague to come back to that, because I think that this is unacceptable. The fact that no one in the House is rising to speak out on this is alarming to me.
