Madam Speaker, what I do know, from growing up on a large farm and ranch in my youth, is that farmers and ranchers are the most amazing stewards of our land. I have witnessed it first-hand. I see it now as I travel in my riding. I see the thousands of people who make their living off the farm. They know that if we do not take care of the land, it will not take care of us. The complaints I am getting from people are not that they are concerned about some of the things my hon. colleague mentioned. What they are concerned about is that their costs are so exorbitant that they can no longer afford to stay in business. That is directly related to the carbon tax.
