Mark Carney Liberal
“Our government helped thousands of families in the opposition leader's riding pay for dental care, childcare, and summer jobs. The opposition leader voted against every one of those programs.”
“Mr. Speaker, let us talk about affordability and steps that governments can take to improve affordability. The Canadian dental care plan benefits over 17,000 people in the riding of Battle River—Crowfoot. The Canada child benefit supports over 14,000 families. There are EDC summer job grants. I could go on. They have two things in common: first, that this government proposed them and passed them; and second, that the Leader of the Opposition voted against them every single time.”
