Carlos Leitão Liberal
“I agree with the Bloc Québécois for voting against this Conservative motion. But the member said our plans only pretend to help people. Does he really think our grocery benefit will not help the 12 million Canadians who will get it?”
“Mr. Speaker, first of all, I want to thank my colleague for his speech. I also commend his party, since he said that the Bloc Québécois will be voting against the Conservative motion. In that regard, we are on the same wavelength. There are, of course, many other things my colleague mentioned that I do not fully agree with. There is just one aspect that I would like him to clarify for me. He said that the government’s measures are just giving the impression of helping people. Does my colleague think that the Canada groceries and essentials benefit is just giving the impression of helping? That benefit will help 12 million Canadians starting on June 5.”
