Taxes are up, fuel is up, food is up and Canadians are fed up, but they are still hungry. Now, in the midst of this affordability crisis, the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> has doubled down on his plan to quadruple the carbon tax. We, as common-sense Conservatives, have brought forward Bill <a data-HoCid=\"11538831\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-234/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act\">C-234</a>, which would create another carbon carve-out for our farmers. We understand that when one taxes the farmer who grows the food, one taxes the trucker who ships the food and one taxes everyone who buys the food.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8063257\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> finally back off, prioritize food security and let his appointed senators pass this bill?</p>",

Les taxes ont grimp\u00e9, le co\u00fbt de l'essence et des aliments aussi. Les Canadiens sont fatigu\u00e9s de manger des claques, mais de ne pas pouvoir manger \u00e0 leur faim. Au milieu de cette crise de l'abordabilit\u00e9, le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> reste d\u00e9termin\u00e9 \u00e0 quadrupler la taxe sur le carbone.
