The Budget  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for his work on the environment committee as chair. Like the carbon tax cover-up, the government has no penchant to share information that may end up exposing the fact that there are risks to its plans. We have not seen a budget

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  . In fact, the member for Carleton called it the “carbon tax cover-up”. The government would not tell us the cost of the carbon tax to the average consumer. It would not tell us about how much it would cost to a wholesaler, etc. The Liberal government has been completely opaque, despite

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  Mr. Speaker, how can the Liberals claim that this bill offers more transparency and accountability when his government has not been transparent whatsoever on the costs of their carbon tax and whom, ultimately, that costs? The member for Carleton calls it the “carbon tax cover-up

Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act  Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Winnipeg for his lucid thoughts today. He mentioned the accountability and transparency of the government. We have asked for details on its carbon tax. The member for Carleton called it the carbon tax cover-up. The government has never

Main Estimates, 2018-19   to focus on the cover-up and how the carbon tax has given rise to the need for a $7-billion slush fund. Canadians want to know if the $7-billion slush fund is part of the carbon tax cover-up, so I will begin by summarizing the carbon tax. I am going to start with the carbon tax cover

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, the carbon tax cover-up continues. For most Canadians, life is becoming more expensive. They just cannot get ahead, yet for the Prime Minister, life has always been lived on easy street. He has never had to worry about making ends meet, because he inherited

Federal Sustainable Development Act   to impose a carbon tax to increase the cost of everything we buy, without being transparent about the cost. They black out the information about how much the carbon tax costs. It is the carbon tax cover-up. I say this to the member across the way: If he is actually proud of his approach

Business of Supply   and uncensored form indicating how much the federal carbon tax proposed in Budget 2018 will cost Canadian families in order to put an end to the carbon tax cover-up. Mr. Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the member for Barrie—Innisfil. As members know, the saga of the carbon tax

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, for 10 years, Canadians were left waiting for Mr. Harper's Conservative government to come up with a plan to combat climate change. We see that things have not really changed since then. The member opposite talks about a carbon tax cover-up. There is indeed

The Budget   the evidence, from the carbon tax cover-up to his attempted tax increases elsewhere, suggest that he will do much more after the election, when he no longer needs voters but still needs their money. That was the Kathleen Wynne-Dalton McGuinty technique for 14 years. Who was the architect

The Budget  . It is the carbon tax cover-up. The government gives people some assurance before the election and then raises their taxes after the election, when the Prime Minister no longer needs voters but still needs their money. This tax increase will cost people a fortune, and the Prime Minister knows

The Budget   to a carbon tax cover-up. Just give us the numbers and then let Canadians decide if this tax and this government are worth the price. I hear a member across the way asking if that is it. Just end the cover-ups, and that will be it. The member for Kingston across the way can have relief—

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, my question is also on the carbon tax cover-up. The day after the Liberals were elected, Finance Canada produced this document, saying, about the carbon tax cost, “These...costs would then cascade through the economy in the form of higher prices, thus leading all

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, my question is about the carbon tax cover-up. The Prime Minister said the carbon tax would buy a mythical social licence to build new pipelines. However, not one inch of new pipeline has been built under the Liberals. They have killed three viable privately funded

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, my question is about the carbon tax cover-up. The Fraser Institute calculates that the Prime Minister has raised income tax on 81% of middle-class families, on average by $800 per family. The PBO says this new carbon tax will axe $10 billion from our GDP
