Mr. Speaker, Canada now has the third highest inflation rate in the G7 at 6.7%.
What this means for Canadians, in concrete terms, is that if they did not get a 6.7% wage increase in the past year, they became poorer. On top of that, the cost of groceries has gone up 8.7% over the past year, and that is the second highest rate in the G7. It seems as though the minister is wearing rose-coloured glasses while making her budget forecasts. Obviously, it is not working.
When will she change her approach and start acting for Canadians?
