Mr. Speaker, the number one issue on every Canadian's mind is inflation.
This Liberal government is responsible for rising inflation. Conservatives are not alone in saying so. Yesterday, Scotiabank's chief economist, Jean‑François Perrault, said that “high levels of fiscal spending will necessitate an unnecessarily large crowding out of private spending”.
In other words, the government does not know how to manage things, and that is driving inflation up.
Will this government do the responsible thing, the right thing in an inflationary context, and control spending?
