Mr. Speaker, after years of the Prime Minister, life has never been more expensive for Canadians. He has doubled the debt, doubled housing costs, caused the worst inflation in 40 years, sent two million people to the food bank and unleashed crime and chaos in our communities.
The Liberals' NDP coalition partners have been there to support them every turn of the way. The NDP leader claimed he ripped up their coalition agreement in a desperate attempt to distance himself from their disastrous record, but now, with a motion of confidence on the table, he is putting himself and his pension ahead of Canadians.
Canadians are desperate for change. It is time for the Bloc and the NDP to stop protecting the costly Prime Minister. We need a carbon tax election now so Canadians can vote to axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime.
