Melissa Lantsman Conservative
“The government has done nothing to help with the high cost of rent, housing, and food. Canadians are paying more in taxes than for the things they need. I want the government to adopt the Conservative plan to lower debt, cut taxes, and bring down the cost of living.”
“Mr. Speaker, it is a day into the session, and there is nothing from the government to fix the affordability crisis on rent, on mortgages and on groceries. This is at a time when Canadians pay more in taxes than they do for bare essentials: Canadians such Olesya, who told me that she is going into credit card debt just to cover rent and food for her family, or Ariella, a student who wonders if she will ever be able to live independently and own a home. Will the government commit today to adopting our Conservative economic plan to save Olesya and Ariella money by lowering debt, taxes and the cost of living for both of them?”
