Mr. Speaker, that is why our first five questions on Friday had to do with that important issue.
There is also another important issue affecting all Canadian families, and it is especially brutal for middle-class families. That is the skyrocketing cost of living.
Prices have risen 4% on food, 6% on basic personal care items, 10% on transportation and 22% on housing.
The government has no plan for inflation. Does it realize that its policies are causing the lowest-income Canadians to pay much more and that they are being hit hard by this government's lack of authority?
