Todd Doherty Conservative
“More people in my community and across Canada must use food banks every month, including many children and workers. I blame Liberal taxes and spending for making life too expensive.”
“Madam Speaker, in Prince George, the Salvation Army served over 6,000 people in a single month. That is a 20% increase in just three years. One in five food bank clients has a full-time job, and over 32% of those clients are children. After 11 years of Liberal taxes and inflationary spending, Canadians are struggling to put food on the table. Relying on food banks is now the unfortunate reality for 2.5 million Canadians every month. How is that okay?”
