"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7454596\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, here are the facts. The Liberal government has been running the country for the past seven years, and it brought in the Liberal carbon tax. Seven years later, here are the facts. Canada ranks 58th out of 63 countries in the fight against climate change. If a carbon tax worked, we would know it by now, but it does not work, as we have seen. Still, the government wants to triple the carbon tax next year.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7454597\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Once again, can the minister stand up and clearly say, with a straight face, that raising taxes during a period of high inflation is a good idea?</p>",

Sept ans plus tard, voici les faits: le Canada est le 58<sup>e</sup> pays sur 63 en ce qui concerne la lutte contre les changements climatiques. Si cela marchait, on le saurait, mais cela ne marche pas et, cela, on le sait aussi. Or, le gouvernement veut tripler la taxe sur le carbone l'an prochain.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7454597\" data-originallang=\"fr\">\u00c0 nouveau sans rire, le ministre pourrait-il se lever et dire clairement que l'augmentation des taxes pendant une p\u00e9riode d'inflation est une bonne nouvelle?</p>"
