Mr. Speaker, for five days the Prime Minister was in hiding, and he is hiding from answering my questions today about the people who are starving.
Seven million Canadians are not eating enough because of the price of food, and 1.5 million are going to food banks. Food banks across the country have lineups that go around the street, never seen before.
The middle-class hungry is the new phenomenon the Prime Minister has brought us after eight years in power. His solution is a radical quadrupling of the carbon tax to 61ยข a litre on the farmers and truckers who bring us our food.
Will he finally adopt the Conservative common sense plan to axe the tax to bring home affordable food?
