Carbon Pricing   the cost of groceries in B.C. and everywhere else. He is right. The NDP has already put in a carbon tax there, but he wants to force them to increase it by almost 40¢ to 61¢ a litre. It would be a federally imposed tax by the costly coalition of the Liberals and the NDP. How much

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the carbon tax is not an environmental plan; it is a tax plan. It has done nothing to meet any targets, and it has done nothing to reduce the cost of climate change. What it has done is increase the cost of food, because when we tax the farmers who make the food

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, if the facts that I have just quoted from the B.C. Centre for Disease Control are false, then maybe the Prime Minister can tell me what the real numbers are. I have asked him that. Given that he wants to bring in a 61¢-a-litre carbon tax and increase gas and diesel

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, all of those things have happened with this carbon tax in place. This carbon tax has done nothing to reduce emissions, let alone stop storms and other weather events. That is nothing more than another act from the Prime Minister. Let us get back to the question

Carbon Pricing   a year ago, and the same report says that prices are higher now. Now the Prime Minister's solution for that is a 61¢-a-litre carbon tax that will push gas prices well over two dollars a litre and increase the cost to farmers and truckers who bring us our food. How much

Liberal Party of Canada  Mr. Speaker, after eight years of the Prime Minister, inflationary Liberal deficits have caused a world of hurt. After their latest carbon tax increases and their $43-billion deficit-busting budget, the inflationary pain Canadians are feeling continues to rise. Rent

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, if he means the carbon tax is effective by driving people into food poverty, I am going to agree with the member because that is what is happening. If it is effective to stop forest fires that he alleges are as a result of climate change, why do we have the fires

Carbon Pricing  Madam Speaker, two weeks ago, I had an opportunity to ask the government about whether the carbon tax causes food inflation. The point of my question was that, all throughout the food chain, the carbon tax is charged. Farmers will pay a carbon tax. In fact, by 2030, the average

Human Resources committee  Minister, I want to touch on affordability. I had a constituent come into my office a couple of weeks back who was very concerned about the 41¢ in carbon tax that they have to pay. I sat down with him and asked, “When's the 41¢? It's 2030. It's not 2023.” That was number one

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are doubling down on their failed scam with a second carbon tax and Canadians are paying the price. Carbon tax 1 drove up the cost of feed, fuel and fertilizer, driving up the cost of food more than $1,000 per family. Higher carbon taxes mean higher

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, it seems that the Prime Minister likes the carbon tax so much that he created a second one. Carbon tax 1 is already inflating the price of groceries. It is going to cost a family of four more than $1,000 more in this coming year. Carbon tax 2 is only going to make

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, carbon tax 1 is inflating the price of groceries, making it more expensive for families to put food on their tables. Food bank use is at record highs and one in five Canadians are skipping meals. The average farm of 5,000 acres will pay up to $150,000 for the first
