"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"9206581\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, tell that to the producers and farmers in Victoria, Carleton and York counties in New Brunswick, who are being hit by the Liberals' newly renamed carbon tax, the clean fuel standard, which adds seven cents a litre. At the same time, the Liberals have raised the industrial carbon tax on steel, aluminum and farm equipment. All this is driving up costs for dairy, beef and poultry producers in my region and throughout the country. These costs are imposed here at home. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9206582\" data-originallang=\"en\">I will ask again. When will the Liberals end their era of self-sabotage and remove the policies that are making life more expensive for all Canadians?</p>",

Parall\u00e8lement, les lib\u00e9raux ont augment\u00e9 la taxe sur le carbone pour les industries qui s'applique \u00e0 l'acier, \u00e0 l'aluminium et au mat\u00e9riel agricole. Tout cela fait grimper les co\u00fbts pour les producteurs laitiers, bovins et avicoles de ma r\u00e9gion et de tout le pays. Ces co\u00fbts sont impos\u00e9s ici m\u00eame, chez nous.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9206582\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je vais poser la question encore une fois. Quand les lib\u00e9raux mettront-ils fin \u00e0 leur \u00e8re d'autosabotage et supprimeront-ils les politiques qui font grimper le co\u00fbt de la vie pour tous les Canadiens?</p>"
