Mr. Speaker, we are two days away from April 1. If the government wants to know what is on Canadians' minds on April 1, the fact of the matter is that in two days, the Liberal carbon tax will go up. For weeks we have been calling on the government to give Canadians a break, to give them some breathing room and not increase the Liberal carbon tax. There are two days left. Can the government understand the goodwill behind this and, more importantly, could it give Canadians a break by not increasing the Liberal carbon tax?

Mr. Speaker, the fact is that for months and months inflation has been on the rise in Canada. The fact is that inflation is now at more than 5.7%. The fact is that all Canadian families are paying more today than they were several months ago. In two days, the Liberals are increasing the Liberal carbon tax. Do they understand common sense? Raising the Liberal carbon tax will increase inflation, and Canadian families will pay even more.
