Madam Speaker, the reality is that we have to axe the tax. People and Canadians are taxed into oblivion. Those bills I read into the record are asinine. We are being taxed on a tax. I go back to the butter. If we take away anything, it is the butter effect. It is melting away businesses and families. When butter goes from $2.49 to $7.49 in eight years, that is catastrophic. It is the one example of how the carbon tax does not work. We must get rid of the tax.

Context: House Hansard - 270 - Jan/29/24
Ms. Michelle Ferreri (Peterborough—Kawartha, CPC)
Mr. Speaker, my colleague's speech was excellent and really honoured the work that our farmers do to feed us. In my riding, over Christmastime, I met with a local woman who had to shut down her business because of the cost of butter. Eight years ago, when she started, it was $2.49 a pound. It is now upwards of $7.49 a pound. That is a 300% increase. How would this bill help with that butter effect that we have seen with inflation and help the cost of a household item like butter come back down?
