Mr. Speaker, I find it interesting that the Conservatives have decided to put the topic of food prices on today's agenda. I am not sold on their solutions, but I think that the issue of food prices is a relevant topic to discuss, especially since, about a year ago, one of the government ministers, the member for Saint-Maurice—Champlain, was very vocal about the fact that we could judge their work by looking at food prices. A year later, what do we see? Food prices are higher than ever and Canada is the G7 country where they have risen the most.
Here is the question I would like to ask my colleague opposite: How can we say that they have done a good job when the minister himself said that he should be judged on the basis of prices and that prices are still rising?
