Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, I want to state some facts. This is not a Liberal policy. The carbon tax was first established in British Columbia by a right-leaning Conservative government under the mask of the B.C. Liberal Party. Therefore, I find it quite interesting when I hear B.C.

Business of Supply  Speaker, first, I want to say to my colleague that we need to stop the disinformation. I also want to make a couple of very important reminders. First, the carbon tax does not apply in Quebec. Second, households outside Quebec that pay this carbon tax receive financial compensation that is in no way related to their profession or marital status. It is based on their income.

Business of Supply  We have to do more to stop the extreme weather events; I agree with that. I believe that climate change is impacting it, but the carbon tax is not working. Why does she vote in favour of punishing British Columbians and Canadians? She always toes the line.

Business of Supply  Canada deserves better than the delay-and-disappoint Liberals or the corporate-controlled Conservatives. Our New Democrat team has been calling for a rollback to the carbon tax loopholes that the Liberals gave to the biggest polluters. Instead of having loopholes, they should be made to pay their fair share. We are taking on grocery store executives. Canadians know that New Democrats are the only party that will stand up to the rich CEOs who are gouging Canadians while raking in record profits.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, the carbon tax regime that the Liberal member opposite seems to keep promoting is not working. The fact that emissions keep going up is the problem. If the stated goal is to impose the carbon tax but emissions keep going up and people are suffering as a result, maybe it is time to rethink the position and the fact that it is not working.

Business of Supply  Here and now, Conservative Party is the only party fighting for first nations, while the NDP wants to quadruple the carbon tax on first nations communities, take more money away, cause more poverty, increase the cost of food, cause more food insecurity and cause more paternalism and colonialism. A colonialist carbon tax imposed by the NDP-Liberal government in Ottawa on first nations without their consent is the last thing we need.

Agriculture committee  The carbon tax is paid by emitters, as I understand it, throughout the system. If you are an emitter, you have to pay a carbon tax.

Agriculture committee  I think we're all looking for where we can do that. You operate distribution networks, and the carbon tax is obviously one of those areas. Do you have an estimate of what your cost with respect to the carbon tax would be?

Carbon Tax  After eight years, the Prime Minister is still bent on his ideology of shaming people for buying what they need, which is food. This food has been produced under the increasing costs of the carbon tax, and now the Prime Minister plans to quadruple that tax. Richard's farm already pays thousands of dollars in carbon tax to grow healthy food for Canadians and will have no choice, with the increasing quadrupled carbon tax, but to pass it on to consumers trying to feed their families.

Agriculture committee  I'm sure you pay a lot in the carbon tax. I'm wondering if you would like to comment on how much that increase has cost your company.

Human Resources committee  According to StatsCan, Canadian food prices are growing at the fastest pace in 40 years. The carbon tax is part of that. The continual increasing of the carbon tax is increasing the cost.

Human Resources committee  We know that the House talked about this last week, and that this would be a big deal—to remove the carbon tax from grain drying and barn heating. I've heard from many constituents and Canadians across the country on how much the carbon tax is costing them. Some of our farmers have outrageous bills.

Government Business No. 31—Proceedings on Bill C-50  The Conservatives' political thinking over the past six months could be summed up in just two words: “carbon tax”. They want to eliminate the carbon tax. They blame the carbon tax for everything. I will say it again because I have to say it every time: The carbon tax does not apply in Quebec. The leader of the Conservative Party has said that the carbon tax will be the ballot box question.

Carbon Pricing  We certainly cannot count on the Bloc-Liberal coalition to help them. Will the Prime Minister finally abandon his plan to increase the carbon tax on farmers and families? They cannot take it anymore.

Carbon Pricing  When will the Prime Minister listen to Canadians and take the carbon tax off farmers, first nations and families who are desperate to heat their homes?
