Madam Speaker, unfortunately, if nothing changes, they will vote to triple the Liberal carbon tax on April 1, 2023. I am going to repeat my very simple question, and I want a real answer for Quebeckers. Quebec has the carbon exchange. This Liberal government wants to triple the Liberal carbon tax on April 1, 2023. My colleague must stop playing politics and give a clear answer. What kind of impact will the government's greedy goal of tripling the Liberal carbon tax have on Quebeckers come April 1?

Madam Speaker, the government has cooked the books to hide the fact that it continues to sink our money into the Trans Mountain pipeline. In the spring, the Minister of Finance announced that the government would spend no more public money on Trans Mountain. However, West Coast Environmental Law has revealed that the interest on the project's debt alone will cost us $750 million this year and $800 million next year. By the end of 2023, the total cost of Trans Mountain to taxpayers will reach, brace yourselves, $17 billion. How much will Quebeckers have to pay for Canada to continue polluting?
