The Liberals have ballooned costs and driven up taxes to the point where people are struggling to feed, heat and house themselves. It is why Canadians deserve a carbon tax election, where they would be able to choose between our common-sense plan to axe the tax or the NDP-Liberal plan to quadruple the tax.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8553669\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why is the NDP continuing to sell Canadians out by supporting the Liberal government?</p>",

Les lib\u00e9raux ont fait gonfler les prix et les taxes \u00e0 tel point que les gens ont du mal \u00e0 se nourrir, \u00e0 se chauffer et \u00e0 se loger. C'est pourquoi les Canadiens m\u00e9ritent des \u00e9lections sur la taxe sur le carbone, qui leur permettront de choisir entre notre plan fond\u00e9 sur le gros bon sens, qui consiste \u00e0 abolir la taxe, et le plan n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrate\u2014lib\u00e9ral, qui consiste \u00e0 quadrupler la taxe.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8553669\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi le NPD persiste-t-il \u00e0 trahir les Canadiens en appuyant le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral?</p>"
