Mr. Speaker, if there is one thing all parties should agree on, it is the fact that Canadians should have enough to eat. Unfortunately, because of inflation, four in five families have had to cut their food budget because of inflation. The government could have chosen to help Canadians directly. Instead, it committed to tripling the Liberal carbon tax as of April 1. That will have a direct impact on food. Canadians are already struggling as it is. Could the Liberal government make the right decision and cancel this Liberal carbon tax hike, which is three times too high?

Mr. Speaker, when it comes to political U-turns, we are looking at the masters. They formed government seven years ago, and boy, have they broken election promises. They said the country would run three small deficits. That is one promise broken. They said they would not run a deficit in 2019. That is another promise broken. Now they are announcing that they are going to triple the Liberal carbon tax. I am going to be a good sport today. Could the Liberals break their promise to triple the carbon tax?
