Mr. Speaker, every dollar the Liberals spend, as we know, comes from the pockets of Canadians, which drives up taxes and inflation. Now they are making it worse with their hidden food taxes. For example, the Liberal plastic packaging ban will add $5.6 billion to food prices, because, of course, it forces producers to use more costly packaging that does not preserve food as well. This means a shorter shelf life, more waste and higher food prices.
Will the Prime Minister stop trying to engineer a costly election with his costly budget, and instead scrap this $5.6-billion hidden food tax?
