Madam Speaker, my colleague talked a lot about food affordability. Food affordability is a major issue across our home province of Saskatchewan, but nowhere more so than in northern Saskatchewan. In northern Saskatchewan, people pay the highest food prices in our province because it costs so much more to truck and transport the food there.
We talked for years about how much the carbon tax affected food prices because of transportation, which the Liberals finally bent on, came around on and scrapped the consumer carbon tax. However, they continue with the industrial carbon tax, the carbon tax on food packaging, fertilizer and front-of-package labelling.
I am wondering if the member has heard anything from the lone Liberal member in Saskatchewan about how he is combatting the higher food prices in northern Saskatchewan?
