He started spitting out personal insults and crying \u201cliar, liar, liar\u201d when he learned I had pointed to the government's report. It showed that the carbon tax will blow a $25-billion to $30-billion hole in our GDP. This was from a report the government tabled in the House of Commons.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8552288\" data-originallang=\"en\">If, in fact, the government is lying about the true cost of the carbon tax to our economy, then what is the true cost?</p>",
