“Life is too expensive under this government. Taxes and debt are higher, and a normal wage is no longer enough to live on. I want to know how people are supposed to afford this.”

“Mr. Speaker, it is always the same story with the Prime Minister’s costly illusion: everything is more expensive. It is higher costs, higher taxes, more debt, and the national credit card is maxed out. It costs the average Canadian family $4,000 net per month just for the right to breathe under Liberal rule. What used to be a decent wage is now barely enough to survive on. How can people make ends meet with the Prime Minister’s costly illusion?”

“Life is too expensive for Canadians, and they cannot afford gas, rent, or food. I want the Prime Minister to take this problem seriously.”

“Mr. Speaker, that answer is not worth much. What is worth a lot is gas at $2 a litre, a two-bedroom apartment at $2,000 a month, on top of an annual bill of $17,000 for a family of four’s weekly grocery run. We saw just how distressed Canadians are when a new liquidation store opened in Granby this morning. The police had to direct traffic because a queue of people had turned up as early as 5 a.m. to buy discounted food. The situation is desperate. The credit card is maxed out. When will the Liberal Prime Minister take the situation seriously?”
