Mr. Speaker, Liberal policies have made child poverty worse. The child and family poverty report card shows child poverty rising for a third straight year. Nearly 30,000 more children are falling below the poverty line, and almost one in five children under age six is now living in poverty. The number of children in severely food-insecure households doubled between 2019 and 2023.
When will the Liberal government stop making child poverty worse, start caring about family food affordability and create a working economy so Canadians can afford to live?
