“The Liberals spend too much money, and it causes inflation. Food and rent keep getting more expensive. The government cannot fix the economy by borrowing more money.”
“Madam Speaker, I was talking about deficits, not fish, but spend, spend, spend is all the Liberals want to do. They cannot spend their way out of inflation. We would think the Prime Minister would have learned that when he wrongfully predicted that COVID spending would actually lead to deflation, but reports are showing that households are still spending more, year over year, on food. Rent is going up year over year. Everything in this country has doubled in the costly Liberal decade. How many more reports do the Liberals need to see before they realize they cannot build a country, an affordable economy, on credit card debt?”
