Finance

Question period exchanges on the cost of living and support for seniors, under the Finance heading. Conservative members said government spending, deficits and taxes were driving up prices for groceries, gas and housing, leaving families and seniors going into debt, and asked the government to stop adding to the national debt. Liberal members pointed to measures they said help seniors, including a groceries benefit, dental care, and a higher benefit for seniors over 75, and one minister noted the Conservatives had proposed raising the retirement age to 67 and had voted against dental care.Written by AI from the debate.
