Mr. Speaker, fertilizer production is essential to our Canadian farmers. Over 118,000 people are directly or indirectly employed by the industry, but the Liberal government's industrial carbon tax puts producers at a global disadvantage, burdening them with up to $1.3 billion in carbon costs by 2030. Domestic fertilizer producers cannot pass those costs down to our farmers as they have to absorb them to compete toe-to-toe with the rest of the world.
When will the government finally level the playing field and scrap the industrial carbon tax on Canadian-made fertilizer?
