Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
New Democrats are certainly of the view that it does not make sense to raise the tax on beer, wine and liquor at the rate of inflation when we're in a period of extraordinary inflation, well beyond the target that the Bank of Canada has set.
We have an excellent panel here, though. I had hoped that this debate might have come closer to the end of the panel. I'd be happy to take up the debate again around noon, but for the moment, I would move to adjourn debate on the motion so that we can have our time with the panel here.
