Madam Speaker, I want to congratulate my colleague across the aisle on his first speech in the House. His enthusiasm is very contagious; I appreciate that.
What I want to ask him is this: I am wondering whether families he represents, families in his riding, are having trouble putting groceries on the table. Are the children going hungry, or are they not able to go into sports this fall, not able to play hockey, for example? Are people having to choose between sports for their kids and groceries?
I am wondering whether the member can explain how, after the last 10 years of Liberal government, food prices are so high and how the Liberal government is going to change anything that it has done consistently for the last 10 years to cause this problem.
