🇨🇦 Cucumbers up 28% while Trudeau's carbon tax keeps compounding

CBC wants you to believe weather and disease are why your cucumber costs $3. Convenient framing. What they bury mid-article is the real driver: fuel costs from geopolitical chaos and domestic energy policy that punishes Canadian logistics at every turn. Fresh veggies jumped 7.8% year-over-year, but StatsCan confirms the March spike is all about fuel. Translation: carbon tax, supply chain fragility, and import dependency you were told would make us resilient.

Mexico and the U.S. supply most of our cucumbers in winter because Canada can't grow enough domestically under this regulatory and tax regime. No energy sovereignty, no food sovereignty. Just permanent reliance on foreign supply chains and permanent inflation. Meanwhile Ottawa lectures you about climate action while your grocery bill becomes a policy tax you never voted for.
