Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Prime Minister is traveling abroad while Canadians struggle to afford food and housing. Food bank use is up 116 percent. The government should stop spending money overseas and make food affordable here.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is again off signing unenforceable and meaningless declarations overseas while he fails to feed a single Canadian or house a single young couple here at home. In fact, since Food Banks Canada released a damning report that revealed that here in Canada there is a 116% increase in the number of people relying on food banks, which is at a crisis level according to the organization, the Prime Minister has not uttered a single, solitary word. Why not stop spending our money abroad, and bring home affordable food at home?”
