House Hansard - 152

44th Parl. 1st Sess.

Context: House Hansard - 152 - Feb/2/23
Mr. Mario Beaulieu (La Pointe-de-l'Île, BQ)
Madam Speaker, the Bloc Québécois does not like to weaken the carbon tax. Quebec has a carbon pricing law, but it does not apply to the agriculture sector. We understand the merits of this proposal because alternative measures are still very expensive for farmers. We need farmers as they provide an essential service. Food sovereignty is important. However, if there were a reasonable alternative, we would be in favour of this carbon tax applying to farmers. I would like to hear my colleague's thoughts on that.
