Bernard Généreux Conservative
“Life is getting too expensive because of Liberal spending. Groceries cost more, people have more debt, and more Canadians need food banks. The government cannot say that everything is fine.”
“Madam Speaker, with all due respect to my colleague, she is taking us for fools. I hope I do not look like a puppet. Canadians are not stupid. Everything the Liberals are doing is going on the credit card. The reality on the ground is clear. Groceries are getting more and more expensive, household debt is rising and food banks across the country are overwhelmed. How can the Liberal government claim that everything is fine when more and more people are having to cut back on food and turn to food banks to put food on the table?”
