Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberal government, taxes are up, prices are up, crime is up and time is up, and the NDP leader has sold out workers by devaluing their paycheque by supporting Liberal inflationary deficits. He sold out seniors and families by hiking the carbon tax, driving up the cost of food and home heating, and he has sold out young Canadians, who have given up on the dream of home ownership thanks to the doubling of housing costs. What did he sell them out for? It was to protect his pension. Canadians now have to suffer longer just so he can get paid. Why does the Prime Minister not just call a carbon tax election so Canadians can decide?

Mr. Speaker, it is not a fairy tale that people cannot afford to feed themselves in Canada. The NDP leader has voted 24 times for the carbon tax. The NDP members talk a big talk, but they cannot be trusted to do what is best for Canadian families. The NDP-Liberals tax people's food, punish their work, take their money, double their housing costs and unleash crime and drugs in their communities. Common-sense Conservatives will axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime. Time is up. When will we have a carbon tax election so Canadians can choose their future?

Mr. Speaker, that is cold comfort to the people struggling to fill their gas tanks, put food on the table and afford simple basic necessities. We know the NDP members will only pretend to stand up for Canadians if they can be assured that they have the backing of the Bloc to keep this tired and corrupt government in power. In fact, 24 times the NDP voted in favour of the carbon tax while Canadians struggled just to get by. Once again, this is why we need a carbon tax election: so that Canadians can choose between our plan and the NDP-Liberal plan. Why are they so afraid to give Canadians a choice at the ballot box?

Mr. Speaker, after nine years of this costly coalition, taxes are up, costs are up, crime is up and time is up. The NDP-Liberal government's reckless policies have forced two million people to food banks. Its destructive carbon tax has made it almost impossible for farmers to make affordable food to put on the tables of Canadians. Canadians want and deserve a carbon tax election. They can decide between the costly coalition and a common-sense Conservative government that will axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime. When will the lame-duck Prime Minister call a carbon tax election so that Canadians can have their say?

Mr. Speaker, when a single mother is deciding whether to put milk in the fridge or gas in the car for their children, that answer is going to give them no comfort this winter. The NDP has sold out Canadians, and for what? It is time to know the truth. Will the NDP stand with Canadians and make sure there is the carbon tax election that they want? Otherwise, is it true that the leader of the NDP cares more about his pension than what Canadians want?
