Mr. Speaker, there have been 2.2 million visits to Canada's food banks in a single month, and one in three of those walking through the doors is a child. That is over 700,000 little ones in a single month. Too many Canadian families cannot afford to feed themselves, and what do the Liberals say? They ask why parents should feed their children when the government can do it for them, as if dependence on the government were compassion.
Conservatives believe in a Canada where every parent can afford a safe home and good food for their family, but the Prime Minister stubbornly doubles down on the same inflationary policies that drove food prices through the roof. Every dollar the Liberal government overspends comes from Canadians and drives the price of everything up, including food.
When will the Prime Minister stop punishing Canadians, reverse inflationary deficits and remove hidden taxes on groceries, fertilizer and farm equipment so that food prices can finally come down?
