What the Liberals do not understand is that there are very real and painful consequences when they hike the carbon tax. When they triple the carbon tax, the price of fuel per litre goes up 41\u00a2, the cost of food goes up 34%, and the average a Canadian farm family pays in carbon taxes is $150,000 a year. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7786335\" data-originallang=\"en\">If that sounds bad, we have not seen anything yet. The <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> is going to add a second carbon tax on Canadians, this time with no rebate. How much is this new carbon tax scam going to cost Canadians?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7786334\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, la coalition de la taxe sur le carbone n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrate\u2014lib\u00e9rale rend la vie trop ch\u00e8re pour les Canadiens. Ce que les lib\u00e9raux ne comprennent pas, c'est que l'augmentation de la taxe sur le carbone a des cons\u00e9quences tr\u00e8s r\u00e9elles et tr\u00e8s p\u00e9nibles. Lorsqu'ils triplent la taxe sur le carbone, le prix du litre de carburant grimpe de 41 \u00a2, le co\u00fbt de la nourriture augmente de 34 %, et la taxe sur le carbone que paie une famille d'agriculteurs canadiens s'\u00e9l\u00e8ve en moyenne \u00e0 150 000 $ par ann\u00e9e. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7786335\" data-originallang=\"en\">Cela para\u00eet grave, mais nous n'avons encore rien vu. Le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> compte imposer une deuxi\u00e8me taxe sur le carbone aux Canadiens, cette fois-ci sans rabais. Combien cette nouvelle arnaque fiscale co\u00fbtera-t-elle aux Canadiens?</p>"
