Poilievre calls for answers as newly-released report forecasts carbon tax economic impact on Canada

- Debate on the price of pollution boiled over Thursday as Conservative Party of Canada Leader Pierre Poilievre stated that the "carbon tax cover-up has now been exposed," during question period in the House of Commons.
"The economic vandalism and carbon tax cover-up of this government has now been exposed," Poilievre alleged, saying that the Liberal government had "leaked out" the real figures and "the economic hit Canada will take - originally reported at $20 billion - with inflation it's $30 billion a year or almost $2,000 for every single family in Canada."
Poilievre's comments were in reference to the release of a report created for the Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) forecasting the economic impact of the industrial carbon tax on Canada, as well as other pertinent forecasted figures such as the total percentage of emissions saved.
Environment Minister of Canada Steven Guilbeault shot back saying "the Conservative Party of Canada are entitled to their opinion, not their own sets of facts Mr. Speaker. The facts are clear - eight out of 10 families get more money back from carbon pricing than it costs them.”

Fire him!! Fire him!! Fire him!!!!
Out of a cannon.
He belongs back in his orange jumpsuit
Tired of them wasting taxpayer money...and the lies...ugh!!
Guilbeault is a liar ,and a criminal , he needs to resign ,or be fired , he is just another insane Liberal .
Guilbeaut is a traitor
Literally
hes a criminal.
No, he is a good man
Why. Do you read news or just follow YT? Poilievre is wrong.
Anyone who calls themselves a 'proud socialist' is a traitor.
8 out of 10 is a lie. Plain and simple. Just because they repeat and repeat and repeat it, does not make it true.
See, CZcams: Have You Seen This Video Of Climate Barbie? ! ..................and then pass it on. I cannot do all this work by myself.
It's a lie because BC and Quebec residents are not even eligible for the carbon rebate that is 17 million canadians.
Repeat a lie often enough and people will believe it.
Everyone in that court was repeating themselves buddy. You can’t say somethings a lie just because it doesn’t align with what you want.
@@tylenol24hr it's facts what is not fully out there is that BC and Quebec residents do not even qualify for the carbon rebate that is 40% of canadians not eligible so the liberals saying 8 out of 10 canadians are better off is a lie when 40% of the population is not eligible.
Paying more does not protects us from disasters. What a 🤡
PAY MORE and Justin will stick his finger in Climate Change.
I mean it would, if it was used properly. But this government is incompetent 🤷
You can though all the Money you want , at the wind it will still blow
@@shobhitdixit991please explain how paying the government will change the weather?
@@tonybaloney8401 Taxes can help fight climate change by making polluting activities more expensive and cleaner alternatives more affordable. The revenue from these taxes can fund renewable energy projects, support green technologies, and provide incentives for businesses and individuals to adopt more sustainable practices. This reduces pollution and encourages the use of cleaner energy sources, helping to mitigate climate change.
Ps I know you won't like my answer because it is logical and sensible. I know you are here to fight 💀
Guilbeault should be immediately arrested.
How about letting 10 out of 10 keep their money
We want the names of the traitors!
Liar liar guilbeault
I wouldn't put it past him to hire people to light forest fires in the name of climate change !
This government is sick.I am 69 years old and worked as a slave in a factory for 45 years. When I had to quit in 2016 because my knees couldn't take it anymore they gave me $6000 dollars in severance. The government took $2000 from me in taxes. I do not want to call myself a victim but I was a chump in believing that anyone in power cared about me.I got a job at a golf course which is a lot easier than slugging it out in the factory but I still have to work 42 hours a week just to make ends meet. Thank you Mr. Trudeau, you just have no clue what is going on in this once great country.
You deserved better. I’m sorry to say that Trudeau has a clue, he just doesn’t care .
Poilievre's party want to make it easier for companies like the factory you worked in to screw over its employees in the same way you were screwed over. I think you might be angry at the wrong people.
We are all tax slaves in this country.
you can thank the banks for that, these sock puppets in parliament are just that, sock puppets doing the banksters dirty work. We should kick out the bank of canada and issue our own currency and put people back to work and pay them their fair share. This system is on a fast track to self destruct and all done by design, the only ones who will survive the coming manufactured economic crisis will be the rich once again.
Womp womp buddy! Should have gotten educated so you didn’t have to work in a factory!
Giulbreault needs his orange suit back. Fire up our oil wells why is Quebec bringing theirs in from Saudi which is much dirtier than ours. Stop transfer payments from Alberta to Quebec immediately things will change in Canada for sure!
Jail bird Guilbielt.
That's the crux of it. These people are so upset about the environment that they shut down the oilsands in favor of giving countries with very little human rights massive swathes of money for oil that caused even more damage to the environment than the oilsands.
So much of this climate hysteria simply results in hamstringing Western businesses, which are then replaced on the global level by mostly Chinese businesses, who accomplish the same job but polluting five times more.
My stance often has people claim that I'm a climate denier, but the reality is that I can recognize that compared to China, anything we do just doesn't matter. They pollute at such a scale that it's hard to even fathom it. We can destroy our peoples way of life, tax them into oblivion, and it will have 0.01% impact compared to what China does. It's not worth the price. We're not saving anything. In fact I think we're actually doing more harm to the environment by giving these businesses to China. We're putting it out of sight so we don't have to see it in our own backyards.
what a very deep and helpful comment. i hate the divider. we are all canadian. each province should like its neighour. united we stand. divided we fall.
Guilbo is such a jerk. He should resign. Useless minister. 👺🤣
Not useless to the Liberals. He has been trained to lie, and make loud noises in parliament.
Canada, let's never again make a stupid activist a minister of anything.
Trudeaus fault
The entire bureaucracy is filled with activists and no election is going to fix that.
Only the Liberals
When you make a drama teacher Prime Minister, you get criminals as Ministers. This is the intelligence of Liberals and their voting base. Together, they killed Canada.
The only activist would I would support is one who is anti-big government/anti-tax
I will never vote for the liberal, ndp party provincial or federal tax tax tax, follow the money 💰, I love Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
Poilievre has weaponized and dehumanized our most vulnerable in society who need critical health care. He has done it to sow fear and to bring back the failed policies of the war-on-drugs era. He points at the Fentanyl death increase of 166% in 9 years under Trudeau, but ignores the 200% increase in 2 years while he was in cabinet under Harper. The Public Health Agency of Canada began national surveillance of opiod-related deaths in 2016, under Trudeau. Harper's top criminal justice advisor supported tough-on-crime initiatives during the Harper/Poilievre era, but changed his mind after moving to Vancouver and said “I thought supervised consumption sites enabled drug use, and that giving people who were addicted a safe supply of free drugs was an insane policy. I deeply regret that I let my political ideology take the place of evidence.” During the first 3 years of BC's safe supply consumptions sites, BC opiod deaths increased by 36%. But during the same time in Alberta, with its Poilievre-approved tough-on-crime policies, opiod deaths increased by 55%, more than double the Canadian average of 25%. During BC's one year decriminalization pilot program, opiod deaths increased by 7%, and during the same time Alberta's opiod deaths increased by 24%. Even more deadly than Fentanyl is Poilievre's policy towards it. Fentanyl is an easy to make synthetic opiod, 30 times more potent than heroin, 100 times more potent than morph
f cons too
Steven , You look better In An ORANGE JUMP SUIT !
Every time Guilbeault opens his mouth he has to mention his make believe carbon boogieman. Yeah, like we're all doomed. FFS.
Guilbeault sounds like someone who is worried about his job

They think that by yelling people will believe them but they only look unhinged. Who voted for all these deranged people?
Guilbeaut is definitely on the traitor list
Jail bird Guilbeaut.
theres no money coming back to anyone apart from their big pockets
Go change the weather in Sri Lanka.
That is simply false. Canadians earning less than $250,000 get more back in carbon rebates than they pay in carbon tax. Axing the tax benefits the wealthy - that's why Conservatives are deliberately sabotaging it. Economists agree that a price on carbon pollution is the cheapest way to reduce emissions with the least amount of harm to the economy. PP refuses to say how he would reduce emissions at aa lower cost - because he can't - and has no intention of doing so in thee first place.
So you agree that the rich should be taxed heavier?

I watched this, the Liberals are so frustrated, it shows with their temper tantrums, arms flailing, fingers pointing...it's frickin' hilarious to see the desperation.
What's even funnier is that Poilievre is wrong again and you are gullible to believe him. He got faulty information and ran with it and here you are crying for nothing.
"Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the Conservatives' attack on the federal carbon tax and its associated rebates is based on a "false premise" pulled from a "flawed" Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) study.
On Wednesday - after the PBO acknowledged it had made a error in its economic analysis of carbon pricing and promised to correct the record - Guilbeault called on the Conservatives to abandon their line of attack.
"To their credit, they (the PBO) made a mistake and they recognized it," Guilbeault said, adding that he hopes the "Conservative Party will also recognize" that their "entire campaign" against the tax is based on unreliable information.
Tell us the qualifications of those 300 economists- are they independent or on government paid contracts
Guiltybeau needs to resign and be tried for misuse of taxpayers money
Poilievre for PM, Trudeau for prison .
pinko wacko geebo flapping his mouth who thinks yelling - he is another joke, obvious geebo reading from a script
10% for blackface!
If 8 out of 10 get more back then it costs them - why charge it in the first place?
The higher gas price because of the tax makes people drive less. They you get the money back in four payments. It’s effective as I cut my drivmg by half because of the prices. It works. Global warming is not fake and it has to be stopped.
"8 out of 10 Canadian families" finds it difficult to get by with current rates of inflation, the carbon tax included. If you can't afford to feed your family and pay your bills people don't care about the climate.
🤦🏻♂️
Why take OUR money if you are turning around and giving 'more' back.
Nothing you have done with our tax dollars has been 'fiscal'. You're government has literally driven our country into deep deep debt.

These liberals are hilarious. The idea that the planet is going to burn if we dont pay more tax is ridiculous
Looking forward to tonight’s Justin Trudeau commercials on how he destroyed Canada 🇨🇦
Under Trudeau Canada ranks #2 as best country worldwide. That's from US News and World Report. The Statistics Canada "Canadian Income Survey" shows that since the Liberals introduced the Canada Child Benefit in 2016, which provides up to $7400 annually per child, Canada's overall poverty rate has been reduced by over 30%. Trudeau re-opened many of the Veteran's Services offices across Canada which HARPER CLOSED DOWN. I mean, are you paying any attention at all or just taking PP's word for it? Do you remember when He and Harper removed all the safe water regulations across Canada so frackers could make billions while Canadians got E-coli? I lost my last house because of HARPER AND PP'S RECESSION. Do you want more of my pages and pages of facts on why Conservatives suck and why Trudeau has MADE CANADA GREAT AGAIN?
I know we don’t get more money back also it puts my rent up in a senior housing
Right and we never even received it in April...it's now JUNE....lol
Eileen, your rent is not going up because of carbon taxes. Stop complaining and educate yourself.
You receive more money back in rebates from Carbon tax than you pay. Please look it up.
@@talktothehandreviews It doesn't even make sense to get more back than is paid. The tax is collected, they have to pay people to process it, then somehow there is more money to give back to people? The tax affects the price of everything that is transported to stores so that's additional cost.
@@LilAngelPrincess95 Hi LAP, The Carbon Tax is not like a regular tax, in fact it's not a tax at all. It's a means to get people to think more seriously about their choices in carbon consumption. They want to reward those who take climate change seriously and make more prudent choices in their fuel consumption. Industrial emitters don't get a rebate and that's where the surplus comes from for individuals. That cost is also factored in. CBC has a calculator that tells you exactly how much you're spending vs how much you get in rebates. Cheers.
The guy is a convict!
If only it would only affect the millionaires. I know some people who run small businesses and are nearing retirement age, they had invested in a small warehouse, vehicles, and yes they also own a cottage. They’ve worked hard all their life to have success. They are going to lose a large chunk of what they’ve worked so hard for thanks to this new additional tax. They gave a 2 month warning. Pretty sure they had time to warn their wealthy friends to move their assets. This will mainly affect the middle class looking to retire. Billionaires are masters at avoiding taxes.
And conservatives are the ones supporting them
They only pay tax on half of what they made. You pay tax on all of the money you put into your RRSP. Have fun....
The liberals should stop using the quote “8/10 families get more money back” while the public can barely afford the basic necessities
CDN earning less than $250,000 get more back in carbon rebates than they pay in carbon tax. Axing the tax benefits the wealthy. Why are you supporting that?
When last in gov, PP and his Conservative colleagues had the worst economic & jobs creation performance of any CDN gov since WW2. They inherited a $12+ billion surplus and turned it into a deficit in less than 2 yrs (before the recession hit.) They failed to deliver on affordability - 800,000 affordable homes were lost - the price of housing went up 60%.
PP has voted 3X against building affordable housing - voted 2X against braising minimum wages - and voted against dental care for kids from low income families - when he's had taxpayer funded dental care for 20 yrs.
When PP was housing minister he built ZERO new apartments, ZERO new housing co-op's, and built only SIX affordable housing units in all of Canada. He cut 97% off the federal affordable housing fund, and as a result, the Canadian private sector built fewer new homes than any year under Trudeau.
Pierre wants you to think carbon taxes (which hurt his oil industry exec buddies) are the cause of your problems. He's super annoyed at carbon taxes. It's "carbon tax" this, and "carbon tax" that. All day, every day. But how much do you pay in income taxes compared to carbon taxes? Ever sat down and done the math? I bet not. And Pierre is counting on that.

We're still going to consume about the same, we're just going to have it be more expensive for necessary non-elastic goods.
All these carbon programs do is move what little manufacturing is left in Canada to places with cheaper labor and most likely less environmentally friendly production. For example, Canada used to be one of the top car parts manufacturers in the world but right now the vast majority of production lines still left in Canada are operating at a loss or close to one and once their leases run their course, they'll be trying to move away to at least Mexico, if not across the ocean to China or elsewhere.
It's a "no brainer" to move production out of Canada, China also has a 20% Capital gains tax and is encouraging investment, the Liberals are driving investment out of Canada.
Guilbeault is aging quickly. It's hard to live a lie.

However charging a tax that only hurts Canadian Pocket books is on no way going to stimulate the economy! It's actually driving business out of Canada and when these socialists run out of money then what? We start stealing from our neighbors and friends?
Look in History at Adolf Hitler, he was able to eliminate opposition to his political career and kept a lot of his own people censored so they only got his opinion and nobody else's!

Does our government live in Canada ?
They talk like they've never been here, and this is what they've heard.
It's like there are two different conversations going on. The narcissism of the liberals is very hard watch
Last time I checked, narcissists are not usually the ones doing things like providing dental care and child care and diabetic medicaions to needy people. 'Narcissism' is more like what PP does, Under Harper, Poilievre voted to cut $1.2 Billion in spending for national childcare, and in the same budget, broke their promise to cut $1.4 Billion in tax breaks for oil companies. He voted against gay marriage even though his own dad is gay. I mean, is that what you call noble? Oh yeah, and don't forget when PP was in Harper's Housing Minister he only built SIX HOUSES, yet points fingers at Liberals. Oh yeah, fun fact Harper sold Canada's Tar Sands to China with absolute control till 2045. Oh, wow, I mean you really should read up on Conservative 'Narcissism'.
Global has to record a monitor for their clip? The reverb is a dead giveaway of a recording of a recording. So much for the taxpayer handouts they flock to get.
What i think is ridiculous is how much we spend on other countries, but cant afford to build housing for our own citizens, and when Canada's GHG accounts for less than 1.5% of the world's Green House Gasses, trying to "curb" peoples carbon spending habits with a dumb tax that does nothing but hurt the economy, is absolutely ridiculous. The impact it will have is a ℱart in a tornado compared to countries like;
China 35%
US 12%
India 8%
Russia 7.5%
Totalling: 62.5% of the world's greem house gas emissions
Every other country after that is less than 2% of the problem for a total of 37.5% of greenhouse gasses, by no means a small percentage but when you consider that is the cumulative GHG production of 191 countries! Out of 195. Canada's role in GHG is insignificant at best, negligible at worst
Guilbeut should resign immediately!

THANK YOU FOR THIS VERY SANE COMMENT! It's like these people don't even check to see if what he says is true!
I assume you mean the Gordie Howe Bridge? You’re absolutely right, why would a government ever invest in a piece of infrastructure to replace a dilapidated and decaying bridge that’s still useful, if not able to handle the billions of $ of trade that crosses it daily? Better to give $100 million to the alphabet mafia for “education”, or $60 million to your buddies for a useless app, or $200 million for our ever expanding civil service to administer a “revenue neutral” carbon tax? You liberal thinkers have to be among the densest people in Canada! In a couple of hours, a grade 5 student could find enough Trudeau waste to fund 50 Gordie Howe bridges. Imagine what a real leader could do!

Look at our new PM calling out the liberal idiots 😅😅😅. BC doesn’t get more money back 😂😂😂😂😂
BC's not part of the federal carbon tax. We've got our own. We used it to cut our income taxes. Why is Pierre so angry angry angry about carbon taxes, but not income taxes? Because carbon taxes will hurt the bonuses his oil exec buddies get. And they've figured out how not to pay income taxes - that's for workers to pay. He thinks he can confuse you into forgetting that we pay WAY more in income taxes than we do in carbon taxes. Let's see if it works.

guilbeault for prison
Jonathan Wilkinson needs to be fired he is a liar just like his boss time for him to go
If carbon tax goes to 8 out 10 families, how can that reduce emissions...from two pockets to 8 pockets...
Carbon Tax simplified
Canada has 2 families:
Family 1: They consume a lot of gas for 2 huge cars, heating for a huge house, exuberant groceries.
They paid $6 in CT
Family 2: They have one car, average house.
They paid $4 in CT.
So, the total CT collected is $10
Divided by 2 families = Rebate of $5 for each family
So, at the end of the year:
Family 1 lost $1
Family 2 gained $1
If they cancel that program, you will net less money at the end of the year, and who wants that?
Only the rich want that, because they pay more than what they get in rebate.
I'm always bewildered how climate change starts forest fires. People start almost all forest fires with carelessness and bad forest management during the 90's
