my message to carbon tax Carney is come in from out of the Shadows we don't need a phantom Finance Minister I had a great summer traveling across the country seeing the Extraordinary People the farmers and fishermen the factory workers uh and Forestry workers the hardworking people the soldiers who protect our country and keep it glorious and free they reminded me of the Canadian promise the pr promis that anyone from anywhere could do anything that hard work would get you a powerful paycheck that bought affordable food gas and homes in safe neighborhoods a country where it didn't matter where you came from it mattered where you were going didn't matter who you knew it mattered what you could do that's the country that I inherited I was born of humble means and raised by school teachers the country my wife came to is a refugee from Venezuela six people in a two-bedroom basement apartment in Montreal but look at the success they've enjoyed that was the Canadian promise but after 9 years of the NDP liberals that promise is broken everything costs more because of money printing deficits that destroy our money and our dollar and high taxes that punish work and Destroy paychecks a carbon tax that's now 17 cents a liter which the NDP liberals have voted and budgeted to increase to 61 cents a liter that tax increase would grind our economy to a halt the trucks and trains that deliver the goods to our supermarkets would stop rolling their drivers would be unemployed the factories that ship their goods in those trucks and trains would shut down it would be like a nuclear winter for our economy if the Trudeau NDP liberal agenda of hiking the carbon tax to 61 cents a liter were to go ahead now hard work doesn't pay you earn it the NDP liberals take it from you housing costs have doubled faster High Rising housing prices in Canada than in any other G7 Country Now 25 to 45% more expensive we have middle class workers living in cars and Tents tent cities have now become common in every single Center across this country where they never existed before in once pristine and beautiful Community Parks we now have people living in tents either because they can't afford homes or because the radical NDP liberal agenda of flooding our communities with taxpayer funded and decriminalized hard drugs has addicted our people leaving them lying on pavement their contorted bodies uh half lifeless maybe they will be among maybe they are among the 44,000 people who have died of overdoses in the last nine years of this chaotic policy our borders have lost all their security 99% of shipping containers go un inspected that's where all the drugs and guns come in leading to a 120% incre increase in gun violence under Justin Trudeau's radical agenda of banning hunting rifles while allowing criminals to run free Catch and Release Crim criminal justice has made us all d uh lose our security Now Jag meet Singh who supported all these policies in fact pushed for them to happen says that Justin Trudeau is radioactive and right before the byelections suddenly had a change of heart or so he said publishing a video claiming that he was no longer in the costly Coalition well let's look at the wording the costly Coalition is called a supply and confidence agreement so if you're pulling out you have to vote non confidence if you don't you're still in the agreement no matter what your video stunt would have everyone else believe so the question That Jag meet Singh has been asked 31 times in the last week and he has refused to answer is whether he will vote non-confidence to trigger a carbon tax election why is that well let's just inspect the timing here for a second he did his video two days before voting started in those by elections trying to trick people into thinking he was no longer part of the Coalition the elections will be held on Monday after which he can just change his mind and go back to voting to keep Trudeau in power so I have an announcement and a challenge I'm announcing that Common Sense conservatives will put forward a non-confidence motion at the earliest possible opportunity and I'm asking Jag meet Singh and the NDP to commit unequivocally before Monday's byelection will they vote non-confidence to bring down the costly Coalition and trigger a carbon tax election or will Jag meet Singh sell out Canadians again which will it be it's put up or shut up time for the NDP there will be a carbon tax election and in it Canadians will decide whether they keep the NDP liberals in power to tax your food punish your work double your housing cost unleash crime chaos drugs and disorder on our streets will they vote for a 61 Cent liter carbon tax or will they elect a common sense conservative government that will ax the tax build the homes fix the budget and stop the crime and we need to bring them down now because otherwise carbon tax Carney's agenda will predominate we found out that there's a new F Phantom Finance Minister now they have a lame duck minister right now who Trudeau is pushing aside just like he pushed aside other female ministers and he's bringing in carbon tax Carney uh someone who uh has too many conflicts to hold the real position Trudeau said he offered uh carbon tax Carney the real job but that that that caused a dilemma would carbon tax Carney pick power or money and he said I know I'll have both he keeps the money with his uh chairmanship of a large multinational corporation that's moving investment to China that buys pipelines in Latin America and the Middle East while he opposes them here in Canada he gets to push his radical Davos agenda of you will own nothing and be happy while at the same time he doesn't have to respect any of the cont conflict of interest laws he doesn't have to have his interests and his Investments exposed online like the rest of us he gets all the power and all the money and none of the accountability and My worry is that he's going to push for a higher carbon tax and we know that because when Trudeau relented under my pressure and paused the carbon tax on home heating for oil heated homes carbon tax carne stood up and said no there should be a tax on home heating right now in other words carbon tax Carney believes the tax doesn't go far enough I have quotes from his book here and I I raise this with you because he was trying to weasle out and keep his position Secret in yesterday's press conference here's what he said in his book the Canadian Federal carbon pricing framework is a model for others one of the most important initiatives is carbon pricing the best approach is revenue neutral Progressive carbon tax these are among the reasons why people are starting to know him as carbon tax caring there we go even a nice little uh horn to Mark the occasion carbon tax Carney it's Now official that is his name and he has a radical agenda my message to carbon tax Carney is come in from out of the Shadows we don't need a Phantom Finance Minister if you are going to be pulling the strings you should be on the floor of the House of Commons with your massive Financial interests and your foreign interests disclosed to Canadians stop pushing to kill Canadian jobs while you ship the jobs abroad make your carbon tax agenda known and be held accountable for Canadians so that we can choose in the carbon tax election and when we do common sense conservatives will bring home the country we know and love where hard work earns a powerful Pat check that buys affordable food gas and homes in safe neighborhoods where anyone from anywhere can do anything where the Canadian promise is restored
