Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government is so out of touch with the reality of what Canadian families are facing. The member talked about temporary pauses, temporary measures and one-time tax breaks. I always welcome a tax break. It is the people's money and the money should be going back into their pockets.
However, the Liberals had a chance this week to remove all federal taxes on fuel, but instead of going all the way, they just took off one tax, the excise tax. Their plan saves 10¢ a litre. The Conservative plan would have saved 25¢ a litre or $1,200 for the average family, and that is what we are calling for. We are calling for a full tax exemption on fuel, all federal taxes, in 2026.
The sad reality is that Canadians are struggling. They are struggling to put food on the table. Seniors are skipping meals. Kids have their milk watered down. Will the Liberal member tell us what measures they are taking to support families who are struggling in Canada today?
