Scot Davidson Conservative
“Food banks in my area and across Canada are running out of food because prices are too high. I want the Prime Minister to change the policies that are driving up the cost of food.”
“Mr. Speaker, this is heartbreaking. Right now, in Bradford and in towns and cities across Canada, every shelf in the food bank is bare. Despite the continued generosity of the community, food banks cannot keep up with demand. This is the consequence of Liberal failures that have seen food prices keep soaring, far outpacing what everyday Canadians can afford. People should not have to rely on government or charity just to put a meal on the table. When will the Prime Minister reverse his inflationary policies so that Canadians can afford to eat again?”
