Transcript

00:00:00.000 Well listen, the Liberals' schemes, scams and spin jobs don't help the millions of desperate, hungry Canadians struggling just to get by every single month.
00:00:11.000 This is a fact. When you tax the farmer who produces the food, the trucker who ships the food, and then the cost of heating and cooling and storing the food, Canadians can't afford the food.
00:00:20.000 But these out-of-touch carbon tax crusaders, they don't care. And they're going to quadruple it on April 1st.
00:00:25.000 Conservatives will axe the tax for all for good. But why won't these Liberals just pass Bill C-234, reject the Senate amendments, axe the tax from farmers and bring down food prices today?
00:00:40.000 The Honourable Minister.
00:00:43.000 Mr. Speaker, I'll tell you where Conservatives were focused just over a week ago.
00:00:47.000 A who's who collection of Conservatives gathered for a pep talk from far-right U.S. commentator Tucker Carlson.
00:00:55.000 Thank you.
00:01:00.000 Commissioner Carlson.
00:01:01.000 Sister records,
00:01:05.000 Colleagues.
00:01:10.000 Colleagues.
00:01:12.000 Colleagues,
00:01:14.000 it's important once again for us to be able to hear the questions and hear the answers.
00:01:21.000 I know that yesterday, if you will recall, there was a member who had complained about the noise level,
00:01:26.100 which made it difficult, especially for people who need to listen to translation.
00:01:30.780 The Honourable Minister.
00:01:33.560 Mr. Speaker, last week, a host of Conservatives gathered in Alberta for a lecture and a series
00:01:40.960 with far-right commentator Tucker Carlson.
00:01:43.800 And in that speech, one of them which focused and which had the Premier, Danielle Smith, attend,
00:01:49.600 we heard attacks on francophones, homophobic jokes, and traditional best hits of MAGA politicians.
00:01:56.820 Mr. Speaker, a Conservative nomination candidate in my writing, went on Twitter, had lots of fun on it.
00:02:02.780 Here's the question.
00:02:03.980 Will his leader stand with the candidate or call him out, or is he standing with Tucker Carlson?
