Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister's knowledge bank on this subject is now depleted, so we will move on to something else: the subject of food prices.
The Prime Minister said that he would be judged on prices at the grocery store. Well, the verdict is in: Food prices are rising 50% faster in Canada than in the U.S. and are almost double the Bank of Canada's target. The Daily Bread Food Bank says that there will be four million visitors to Toronto food banks, a doubling from over two years ago, yet the Prime Minister has three grocery taxes in place, and going up, while people line up at food banks.
Will he stop taxing food so Canadians can afford to eat?
