Madam Speaker, I listened to the hon. member's speech with care. He noted that the impact of excess profits is nine times that of the carbon tax. I wonder why he is not nine times as outraged himself about the excess profits that are being raked in while contributing to the climate crisis. Why will the government not support an excess profit tax on oil and gas, which was even imposed in the U.K. by Conservatives?

  • Re: Bill C-19 
Madam Speaker, I listened to the member's speech with interest as he connected Bill C-19 to international events. I want to ask him something that relates to his role as the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Revenue. There were some moves against banks to tax their excess profits. Why is the government so reluctant to extend that tax on excess profits to the big box stores and gas companies that are profiteering while other Canadians are struggling to make ends meet?
