Mr. Speaker, I am also concerned about how difficult it is getting for individuals and families to make ends meet. However, this is the thing. The Conservatives do not support a national child care plan. I put forward a bill for a guaranteed livable basic income, and they do not support that either. They voted against an excess profit tax on oil and gas companies that would have made big oil pay their fair share. Since we are talking about a carbon tax, and the Conservatives are opposed to that, I am wondering if they are for making big oil companies pay instead of the cost being paid on the backs of people and families.

Mr. Speaker, in my last question for the Conservatives, I called out their failure to tax the big oil companies. They share that with the current Liberal government. I am wondering why the Liberal government continues to let big oil off the hook while families are struggling. Instead of making big oil and gas pay, why are the Liberals making families and individuals pay what big corporations and big companies owe?
