Opposition Motion—Food Taxation Members debate food affordability and rising grocery prices, with Conservatives arguing that Liberal policies, including industrial carbon taxes, inflation, and packaging taxes, are increasing costs. They highlight soaring food bank use and higher Canadian food inflation compared to the US. Liberals counter that global factors and climate change contribute to prices, while their government implements social programs, tax cuts, and housing initiatives to improve affordability and support farmers. The Bloc criticizes both sides for simplistic solutions, calling for increased senior benefits and addressing grocery chain competition. 59400 words, 7 hours in 2 segments: 1 2.

Statements by Members

Question Period

The Conservatives heavily criticize the Liberal government's reckless spending and exploding deficits, which they link to skyrocketing grocery prices and food inflation. They demand an end to taxes on food and call for the Prime Minister to fire the Public Safety Minister over lost 600 foreign criminals, a failed gun buyback program, and inaction against international organized crime, also urging reform of the bail system.
The Liberals focus on presenting a generational budget to build the strongest economy in the G7, while defending investments in the school nutrition program and dental care. They highlight the gun buyback program, enhanced border security, and reforms for Canada Post's viability.
The Bloc condemns the Canada Post reform for reducing services for seniors, people with disabilities, and rural Quebeckers. They also demand the government make Hells Angels patches illegal to combat organized crime, contrasting it with Bill C-9.
The NDP criticizes job losses and the government's failure to renew the home retrofit program or invest in green jobs.

Adjournment Debates

Federal Bail Reform Andrew Lawton criticizes Liberal bail policies as being soft on crime, citing repeat offenders being released. Jacques Ramsay defends the government's actions, blaming the provinces for issues in the justice system, and promises stricter bail and sentencing measures. Alex Ruff presses for a timeline.
Federal Procurement and Spending Kelly Block questions why Canadians get so little for the taxes they pay, citing GC Strategies and cost overruns. Jacques Ramsay says the government is committed to fairness and transparency in procurement, and has barred GC Strategies from contracts for seven years. Block says it's the same old pattern. Ramsay says the Auditor General is now satisfied.
