Mr. Speaker, after eight years, this Prime Minister is not worth the cost. While common-sense Conservatives are working to axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime, the Prime Minister wants to impose not only a new 17¢-a-litre gas tax with the support of the Bloc Québécois, but also a decree to shut down Quebec's forestry industry. Why does the Prime Minister want to encroach on Quebec's jurisdiction and eliminate forestry workers' jobs?

Context: House Hansard - 290 - Mar/18/24

Hon. Chrystia Freeland (Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, Lib.)

Mar/18/24 2:20:10 p.m.
Watch

Mr. Speaker, Quebec has had its own carbon pricing system since 2013. The province is not subject to the federal regime. The Conservative leader continues to demonstrate just how poorly he understands Quebeckers by promising to dismantle a system that Quebec decided to put in place more than 10 years ago. The Conservative leader is the one who does not respect Quebec's jurisdiction.
