Madam Speaker, it seems the only thing new about the government is the way it avoids responsibility. Yesterday, the Parliamentary Budget Officer said, “as anyone who has managed a household budget knows...at the end of the month [when] you don't have enough money to pay your bills...something's going to break.”
Let me tell members what is breaking. It is is the morale of families that are going hungry. Beef is up 33%, soup is up 26% and grapes are up 24%, and there will be a projected four million visits to Toronto food banks.
The Prime Minister claimed to be an economic expert, yet his broken promises have doubled the deficit and driven up food prices. When will he admit that his fiscal failures are starving families of hope?
