Business of Supply  What does this partial documentation tell us? The news for Canadians is very bad. It says in black and white that the carbon tax's true impact on the economy is minus $30.5 billion until 2030. If I were in government, I might not be very proud of these numbers either, but numbers and facts are stubborn.

Petitions  Speaker, I rise to present a petition signed by over 100 persons, calling for the elimination of the Liberal carbon tax on home heating. When the Liberals provided the carbon tax relief to Canadians living in areas where their polling numbers were dropping, they showed their true colours. It is clear that the Liberals believed in two types of Canadians: some who get rewarded for voting for them and others who must pay for the Liberals' costly policies.

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, all we have to accept is the fact that the Prime Minister's carbon tax will not reduce, by one penny, the cost of climate change to Canadians. It will not eliminate one flood, one drought, one storm or one anything. The carbon tax literally does nothing to change the weather or the climate.

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, the Liberal government refuses to acknowledge that Canadians pay more into the carbon tax than they get back. However, over a year ago, the Parliamentary Budget Officer published his report, which showed that, taking into account the full economic impact of the government's carbon tax regime, most Canadians were worse off.

Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  There is another part to this whole thing. It is called carbon tax scam 2, the clean fuel regulations. That has zero rebate, and it affects every single Canadian in every province. The PBO, yesterday, admitted to me that, if a majority of Canadian households are worse off with carbon tax scam 1, which has the phony rebates, then when we factor in carbon tax scam 2, which has no rebates, overall, a majority of households are still worse off.

Committees of the House  Yesterday I had the opportunity to visit Carleton Mushroom Farms, not far from Ottawa, and it spent $170,000 in carbon tax last year alone. We know that 44% of produce growers are selling at a loss. One recommendation that was removed from this report was the importance of approving Bill C-234 unamended because the amendment would remove the carbon tax carve-out for greenhouses and mushroom farms, which would cost them more than $300 million by 2030.

Carbon Tax  According to the MDI, a poverty metric that is widely used in Europe, 30% of 18- to 30-year-olds, 44.5% of single-parent households and 42% of renters cannot afford two or more household essentials. The Liberal government's own carbon tax data shows that the scheme costs every household in Canada almost $2,000 and has deprived the country of $30.5 billion in lost economic activity. While the Liberals raise taxes, more and more Canadians are falling into poverty.

Electoral Participation Act  That is what even proponents of the carbon tax say it exists to do. The carbon tax exists to make driving one's car more expensive and to make taking that family road trip more expensive, the family road trip that the Minister of Health thinks is going to burn the planet.

Electoral Participation Act  Proponents of the carbon tax—

Carbon Tax  Mr. Speaker, after nine years under the current Prime Minister, his inflationary carbon tax is driving up the cost of everything, making life more expensive than ever before. The Parliamentary Budget Officer has already proven that the carbon tax, just like the Prime Minister, is not worth the cost.

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the NDP-Liberal carbon tax scam was exposed last week, and it confirms what every hard-working Canadian already knows: It makes life unaffordable. The Liberals' own data, which they desperately tried to hide, shows the Liberal carbon tax scam robs Canadian families of $2,000 a year.

Carbon Pricing  Speaker, the environment minister has been caught covering up a damning secret from Canadians. After years of telling Canadians they would be better off from the carbon tax, his own government's data has proved him wrong. The carbon tax will cost the Canadian economy $30 billion every year. That is nearly $2,000 per Canadian family. Now that we know the environment minister chose to vandalize the Canadian economy with this carbon tax, will he do the right thing and resign?

Carbon Pricing  They are ready for change and a government that will actually take action for Canadians. When will the government call a carbon tax election and allow Canadians to decide whether or not they want to axe the tax?

Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Every party in the House had the chance to vote on giving Canadians a break and to help them keep more of their money in their pockets when Conservatives proposed giving Canadians a break from the carbon tax for the summer. Instead of giving Canadians the relief they are looking for from the oppressive Liberal carbon tax regime just for the summer, Liberals have doubled down and have introduced a new capital gains tax increase.

Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  I wonder if the member could elaborate on the fiscal failure of the doubling of the debt and the tripling of the carbon tax, as well as what the carbon tax has done to initiate the cost of inflation that Canadians are seeing in their rents, mortgages and grocery bills today.
