Grocery bills will be higher if I vote Dion.  What policy of his is going to raise the price of food exactly?

It all stems from this:

Quote
In May 1999, Dion was the object of a pie-in-the-face gag orchestrated by the Montreal group, les Entartistes. The group's stated focus is to "deflate" influential political figures, and they have successfully pied several Canadian federal and provincial politicians, with past targets including Jean Chrétien and Ralph Klein. Dion was not amused and pressed charges, resulting in convictions of assault against two members of the pie-throwing group.[88] They were given suspended sentences

He now despises food as a result. Especially pie.

well,  in my uninformed understanding....

Carbon tax = higher transportation costs for goods = higher grocery bills.
