Madam Speaker, we know that British Columbians are facing affordability challenges right now, and we are working with Canadians to support them. That is why we made things, such as the national school food program, permanent. That is why we have the groceries and essentials benefit, which was paid into bank accounts on Monday. That is why we have the Canada child benefit. My colleague across the way is from Vancouver Island, where we know that over 70,000 families have received that benefit. It is important. These are the steps we are taking to support Canadians.
