Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his question.
One of the reasons for that is that people cannot pay the taxes that have gone up across the country.
For example, in my home province of Manitoba, the New Democratic government recently increased provincial taxes for all Manitoban families. That is why some families cannot make ends meet.
For its part, the federal government is reducing taxes for families by including measures to help them in the budget. I hope that all members of the House will vote in favour of these measures to help our Canadian families.
