Mr. Speaker, Canadians are offended. Those two million Canadians who are waiting in a food bank line, with a million more projected this year; the moms who are having to double- and triple-check how much they can afford at the grocery store this week; the one in four Canadians who are skipping meals; the kids who are hungry when they go to school: those are the people who are offended. Those are the people common-sense Conservatives are standing up for against the corrupt, out-of-touch Liberal-NDP costly coalition that has punished them for just being Canadian. We are going to bring back the Canada that people will be proud of, where people can afford a house, afford groceries and live in safe communities once again, under the leadership of the member for Carleton.
