Canadians pay more in "carbon tax" than they get back in rebates, Conservatives claim

Speaking during Monday's question period in the House of Commons in Ottawa, Conservative MP Andrew Scheer proclaimed that Canadians pay more in the so-called "carbon tax" than they receive back in climate incentive rebates.

Scheer added that the carbon pricing will add more pressure on Canadians, many of whom struggle to afford food.

Liberal Treasury Board president Anita Anand replied that Conservatives deny the existence of climate change, as they pressure her party to "axe the tax" amid an upcoming rise in carbon pricing on April 1.

"Note that the Opposition does not rebut the claim that they deny that climate change exists," Anand said during question period.
