Jeff Kibble Conservative
“Canada is in a recession under this Prime Minister. Workers tell me they cannot afford food, and the government's grocery rebate leaves out people working full time. I want the Prime Minister to take this seriously and help Canadians afford to eat.”
“Mr. Speaker, under the Liberal Prime Minister, Canada is the only G20 country in a recession, and in the past few days, we have learned much more about how dire the state of our economy is under his watch. On Saturday night, in a Lake Cowichan pub, workers told me their biggest worry was affording groceries, but the Liberals’ recycled grocery stunt cuts off at only $59,000 for a couple, meaning that full-time workers are shut out. The Prime Minister laughed at suffering Canadians in this House last week. Will he stop laughing and start caring so that Canadians can afford to eat?”
