Mr. Speaker, while the Prime Minister and the Liberals are asking Canadians to make sacrifices, and Canadians are lined up at food banks in record numbers, the Liberals' use of well-connected friends and high-priced consultants is driving costs up, as in the benefits delivery modernization programme, which the Auditor General says has ballooned by an additional $1.3 billion and could hit as high as $8 billion.
Canadians cannot afford the Liberal government. We are seeing layoffs from coast to coast to coast like we have never seen before.
Why are Canadians being asked to make sacrifices while the Liberals continue to reward well-connected Liberal consultants?
