Mr. Speaker, after eight years under this government, Canada is in debt, divided and humiliated. Despite all that, the Bloc Québécois is backing the Liberals on the second carbon tax. It even voted in favour of it on two occasions. Believe it or not, the Bloc Québécois is calling for a radical increase in this tax. Voting for the Bloc Québécois is so costly that no one can afford it. As Thanksgiving approaches, what does the government intend to do to ensure that Canadians can have a good meal, as promised?

Mr. Speaker, the Liberals' inflationary taxes, supported by the Bloc Québécois, are having a very serious impact. According to a recent poll, 46% of consumers are buying lower quality food because it costs less, and 63% are concerned that those choices are having a negative impact on their health. Contrary to what the Bloc Québécois would have people believe, the second carbon tax does apply in Quebec and it will drive up the price of all consumer products. The question is very simple. Will this government show some empathy and cancel the two carbon taxes?
