Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberal Prime Minister, Canadians are worse off. The effects of his deficits, inflation and carbon tax hikes have been devastating. A new report by the Angus Reid Institute says that a majority of Canadians are struggling just to buy food. Of course, that is even worse for low-income households, with two-thirds of those Canadians saying they cannot even afford to feed their families.
One way to lower food prices would be to axe the carbon tax on the farmer who grows the food, the trucker who ships the food and the grocer who sells the food. The Prime Minister could do that today.
Will the he show some compassion, lower food prices and just axe the tax?
