Mr. Speaker, after eight long years of the NDP-Liberal government, Canadians are finding life more difficult each and every day. The tripling of the carbon tax is having a devastating effect. It is raising the cost of everything from gas to groceries to home heating fuel. Canadians are struggling just to get by. According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, B.C. is one of the most expensive places to live. British Columbians are being “raked over the coals”. The Prime Minister just does not understand. Higher taxes means it costs more to grow the food; it costs more to ship the food; and, ultimately, it costs more to buy the food. When Prince George resident Brian Wourms opened up his gas bill, almost half was tax. We need to end this nightmare. The Prime Minister is out of touch and just not worth the cost.
