Mr. Speaker, after eight years, farmers can no longer carry the burden of the NDP-Liberal government.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, vegetable farmers warned Canadians about why the Prime Minister is not worth the cost. The price of fresh vegetables is already up 12%. The Liberals' front-of-pack warning labels on food will cost the industry $2 billion. Now, the Prime Minister's nonsensical package changes on produce will increase the price of food 30%. These are costs that will be passed directly to the consumer.
Why is the Prime Minister increasing the cost of food by 30%?
