Mr. Speaker, there was actually a study on the impact the industrial carbon pricing has on the cost of food, and the result of that study was that it has a 0% impact on the cost of groceries. The number one cause of food inflation is actually climate change, and we only have to talk to one farmer to realize that.
I fully recognize that food costs too much these days, so our government is here with the groceries and essentials benefit, which is a rebate that lower-income Canadians would receive four times a year to assist with these additional grocery prices.
The Conservatives have a choice to make: Are they going to support affordability for Canadians, or are they going to keep standing up for the wealthiest Canadians?
