Madam Speaker, I appreciate the talking points from my colleague opposite, but Sylvain Charlebois, the food professor, who is well known on social media, would completely disagree with everything the member just said. He said that the member's government policy has been directly linked to food price increases. He said the policies that the Liberals have had, such as the industrial carbon tax, have increased the food prices. Therefore, the member opposite can forgive me if I am going to take the word of Professor Sylvain Charlebois over his.
The Prime Minister said he would be judged by the prices at the grocery store. Prices have continued to go up. He cannot deny the fact that prices for food have continued to go up for all Canadians from coast to coast, especially in rural and remote areas, where they see that, because trucking companies pay an industrial carbon tax on shipping food, food is more expensive. It is more expensive to get it to rural and remote areas. How can the parliamentary secretary possibly deny that fact?
