Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. To follow up on what my Liberal colleague was saying, let us talk about climate change. What is going to be really costly to taxpayers? It certainly has to do with agriculture, but not with the carbon tax. What farmers are telling us is that the lack of water is going to be costly. Crops lost to pests are going to be costly. Heat is having a real impact on livestock, productivity and reproduction. There is less snow, which protects the earth. As a result of all of that, yes, it will be more costly. Climate change is here and it will be here for good if we do nothing to control it or reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. What does my colleague think of that analysis?
