Mr. Speaker, the carbon tax will increase on April 1. Unfortunately that is not an April Fool's joke. The carbon tax increases the cost of food and the cost of fuel for truckers. It also directly impacts our farmers and our producers. According to Canada's Food Price Report 2023, if the tax triples, a 5,000-acre farm will pay more than $150,000 in taxes. The Liberals have until tomorrow night at midnight. Will they stop it? Will they cancel it?
