Madam Speaker, the Conservative call for focusing on taxes in this particular instance is out of place. No serious analysis has given any credibility to what the Conservatives have put forward on the issue of food inflation. I shared earlier this week, as we all know and the Bank of Canada recently affirmed, that climate change is a key factor, and the key factor when it comes to the increase in prices at the grocery store. How could it not be? An increase in severe weather events, droughts and floods obviously limits supply, and that has an effect.
Ultimately, the member and all members across the way, all of us in the House of Commons, can get behind budget 2025, because it focuses on Canadians.
