Mr. Speaker, I always find it comical, if not sad, when the Liberals are questioning data that comes from Statistics Canada or Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, like they did with my hon. colleague.
I do want to talk about the $800 tax decrease that was announced. I want to counter that by saying that the average food costs are going to go up, per family, this year by $800. The average family in the country is going to spend $17,000 of its after-tax dollars on food.
Would the hon. member not agree that food insecurity is a major threat to many Canadian families, single moms and seniors?
