While my province of Newfland and
0:07
Labrador has the highest unemployment
0:08
rate in the country at nearly 10%, the
0:11
industrial carbon tax is compromising
0:13
our competitive edge and shifting our
0:15
jobs abroad. Canada's energy, mining,
0:17
and forestry workers are pleading to
0:19
have the industrial carbon tax removed.
0:21
My question is, will this prime minister
0:24
fully repeal the industrial carbon tax
0:26
to create jobs at a time we need it the
0:29
most?
0:32
The the honorable the honorable minister
0:34
of environment and climate change.
0:37
Mr. Speaker, making sure that polluters
0:40
pay is a central part of moving forward
0:43
and being competitive as an energy
0:46
superpower. When we look at other
0:48
countries around the world, they have
0:49
border carbon adjustments in place. They
0:51
are looking to Canada to make sure that
0:55
the energy that we provide is low risk,
0:58
low cost, and low carbon.

The honorable member for Ilgen St.
1:04
Thomas, London South.
1:06
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Liberals
1:08
claim they want to make Canada an energy
1:10
superpower, but they forget it's their
1:12
record over the last decade that has
1:14
decimated our energy sector and kept our
1:17
resources in the ground. Their oil and
1:20
gas production cap will kill tens of
1:21
thousands of jobs and cost our economy
1:24
$20 billion. Their industrial carbon tax
1:27
will cost Canadian businesses and
1:28
consumers and make Canada less
1:30
affordable and less competitive. Their
1:33
legislation, Bill C69, is blocking
1:36
energy infrastructure and making us more
1:38
dependent on the United States. The
1:39
solution is easy. Will the prime
1:41
minister repeal Liberals's costly
1:43
anti-energy laws?

[Applause]
1:52
Um, the honorable minister of industry
1:55
and Canadian economic development.
1:57
Thank you. Uh I would like to thank
1:59
first and foremost the constituents from
2:01
Hans
2:05
know that we are in a trade war that has
2:07
been launched by the US and we know that
2:09
hardworking Canadians are feeling the
2:11
grunt of this trade war particularly in
2:13
the manufacturing sector particularly in
2:15
the auto steel lum aluminum sectors and
2:19
we continue to fight for them that's why
2:22
we will make sure that we invest in them
2:25
that we work on making sure that we
2:27
attract the investments across the world
2:30
while making sure that we grow the
2:32
fastest economy of the G7.
