Madam Speaker, in the last 10 years under the Liberal government, the cost of food for families and seniors has doubled. In the last four years, the cost has gone up by 25%. A senior's income and a family's income have not kept pace with that.
It is going to require a complete change in direction from the government to end its inflationary policies and make life more affordable. Whether it is housing, food or fuel, in every measure, the government has pushed us in the wrong direction. It has pushed seniors and families to the very brink, where they are having to make terrible decisions about whether to heat their home, feed themselves or put fuel in their vehicle. Canadian seniors should not have to make that decision.
