Carbon pricing. Madam Speaker, speaking of people who are out of touch, they are providing a very clear illustration of that this morning. I invite the government and the Bloc Québécois to go to Beauce today to tell the farmers that the carbon tax has no impact in Quebec. I have room in my car

Carbon Pricing Mr. Speaker, after eight years, this Liberal-Bloc Prime Minister is not worth the cost of the carbon tax. Quebec farmers are in revolt against the Prime Minister because they are facing mountains of paperwork, a blatant lack of financial support and the carbon tax, which is crus

Carbon Tax Mr. Speaker, after eight years, the costly Bloc-Liberal coalition is not worth the cost. This coalition continues to display contempt for farmers by radically increasing the carbon tax and voting to amend our common-sense Bill C-234. From the outset, this government has shown Ca

Carbon Pricing Madam Speaker, today is the Prime Minister's last opportunity to walk back his April Fool's joke, the carbon tax hike. Canadians are struggling, but the Bloc Québécois wants to drastically increase the carbon tax, which will drive up the cost of gas by 20¢ a litre and have a mas

Government Priorities Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Québécois is keeping the Prime Minister in power even though he broke our immigration system, raised taxes and doubled the national debt.

Housing Mr. Speaker, that answer proves just how out of touch and asleep at the switch this government is. It needs to get out of the way so municipalities can build affordable housing, just as Victoriaville, Saguenay and Trois-Rivières have done. The community organization Le Bercail h
