Madam Speaker, Atlantic Canadians are struggling to pay for their groceries, gas and home heating. Meanwhile, the Atlantic Liberal MPs support measures to quadruple the carbon tax to 61¢ a litre. Atlantic Liberal MPs have continued to support carbon taxes since 2015. Will the Atlantic Liberal MPs vote on the Conservative motion next week to axe the tax so that Atlantic Canadians can afford gas, groceries and home heating?

Madam Speaker, they have already ruined one tidal project, and I invite the member opposite to tell the people of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, choosing between fuelling their cars and purchasing groceries, how the carbon tax is not punishing them every single day. Atlantic Liberal MPs allege they are not in favour of carbon taxes while back home but have supported them 23 times since 2015. Again, they claim they are now against the carbon tax. Will they put their money where their mouth is and vote next week to axe the tax?
