An Act for the Substantive Equality of Canada's Official Languages  Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask my friend a question.

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, ever since this Prime Minister came to power, everything costs more. A family of four will have to hand over $1,065 more for food. One in five Canadians is skipping meals, and more and more people are turning to food banks. What is this Prime Minister doing? He is ma
