Guillaume Deschênes-Thériault Liberal
“This debate is about affordability. The member says he cares about lower costs, but he spent the last year and a half voting against our tax cuts and our school food program. Why is he only supporting affordability now?”
“Mr. Speaker, I would like to finish this discussion with my colleague. Tonight, we are talking about affordability; we are not discussing all the other points he could have raised in his speech. If affordability is important to him, why has he consistently voted against our measures, whether it be tax cuts for the middle class, Canada’s national school food program or all the other measures we have introduced over the last year and a half? Why has he finally decided to support affordability measures this evening when he has been voting against them for the past year and a half?”
