François-Philippe Champagne Liberal
“Forces outside of Canada are affecting our economy and prices. We introduced a benefit to help 12 million Canadians with up to $1,891 for groceries and essentials. The Conservative leader and his party voted against it, and Canadians want to know why.”
“Mr. Speaker, Canadians can see the bigger picture. They understand that there are external factors that obviously affect the economy and prices in Canada. What the people at home want to know is why, when we introduced the Canada groceries and essentials benefit that will help 12 millions Canadians and provide up to $1,891 per family, the Conservative leader voted against this measure and convinced all his colleagues to vote against it. That is the question.”
