Mr. Speaker, Conservatives are calling for the permanent scrapping of Liberal taxes. That includes the 10¢ federal excise tax and the GST on top of all those taxes, and the Liberals' so-called clean fuel standard tax.
Let us not forget that the 25¢-a-litre tax, the removal of which we are calling for, is a Liberal made-in-Ottawa problem. It cannot just be blamed on global oil prices. This is a time when Canadians are facing an affordability challenge. Two million Canadians are relying on food banks, and 700,000 of them are children. As well, food prices are expected to rise by about $1,000 for a family this year.
Conservatives are providing real solutions. Will the Liberals support this?
