Mr. Speaker, members on the other side of the House seem unable to grasp the reality facing ordinary Canadians.
As I said, 600,000 people in Quebec are using food banks. Meanwhile, rents are doubling in every region of the province, and grocery prices just keep going up. On the weekend, Le Journal de Montréal reported that pregnant women are now cutting back on protein and vegetables. People can no longer afford to pay their rent. They can no longer afford to buy groceries.
Will the Prime Minister finally get the message and table an affordable budget so that families can afford to live?
