Mr. Speaker, once again, the Conservatives are demonstrating that they have no credibility on affordability because they are ignoring all of the recommendations that the experts are making to pursue a more equitable future in Canada. One of the recommendations the Conservatives chose to ignore was the groceries and essentials benefit. We are using a proven mechanism to provide relief to families in those income brackets that need it most with the rising cost of living. The Conservatives can quote the experts if they want to, but I recommend they follow the recommendations as well.
In the House of Commons on February 25th, 2026. See this statement in context.
