“The member says he wants to help Canadians, but he votes against our programs. He voted against money for groceries, free dental care for people in his riding, and tax cuts. He should support our measures instead.”
“Mr. Speaker, my colleague talks about giving people some breathing room and about helping Canadians. He could start by voting for measures that directly help Canadians in their daily lives. One example is the Canada groceries and essentials benefit, which will help 12 million Canadians. They will receive their first payment on June 5. That member opposes this measure. Another example is the Canadian dental care plan, which helps at least 25,000 people in his riding, Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles. He also opposes that. Another example is the tax cut for 22 million Canadians. That was the first thing we did. It is time for my colleague to walk the talk and support the government.”
