Cost of Living

During members’ statements, a Conservative member raised the cost of living, saying that after 11 years of Liberal taxes and spending, Canadians face rising costs for food, housing and transportation while wages are not keeping up, and that food bank visits have reached an all-time high. He called on the government to pause fuel excise taxes, remove the GST from gas and diesel, and scrap the industrial carbon tax and clean fuel regulations.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
