Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre wants MPs to order the "unelected" Senate to pass a Tory bill that would take the carbon price off natural gas and propane used on farms.

Poilievre introduced a motion in the House of Commons this morning looking to send a message to senators to pass Bill C-234.

The House already passed the private member's bill, and all but three Liberal MPs voted against it.

It would remove carbon pricing from natural gas and propane used to heat farm buildings and grain dryers for eight years.
