Mr. Speaker, the Liberal minister sat here for 10 years while people lined up at food banks. Is that what she has to say? Runaway Liberal deficits doubled grocery prices. Now the same people who caused the crisis think the solution is just to spend more of other people's money.
It is not just Liberal deficits driving up food costs. They voted against removing every hidden food tax that they themselves imposed: packaging taxes, the industrial carbon tax and another 17ยข a litre because of the fuel standard. It is a religion to them. Food prices are soaring and fridges are empty.
Why do the Liberals not scrap the hidden taxes they imposed?
