Minister, the gift you're giving to Canadians is much higher taxes and much higher costs that are impacting their grocery prices, and it's incredible that you refuse to answer the questions on the policies that your government has put forward.
The ban on the P2 plastics will increase food costs. This is by Deloitte. This isn't by us, as Conservatives, but by Deloitte. It will increase produce costs by 35%, reduce availability of some products by 50% and cost the industry $5.6 billion. These costs will be passed directly on to consumers, increasing their grocery prices.
There are some things that you are responsible for as a government that are making these costs go up, and yet you are not taking responsibility for those decisions.
