“We are helping Canadians deal with high living costs caused by foreign wars and trade fights, and our budget tomorrow will do more. The Conservatives vote against every single thing we do to help people.”

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister and the government have and will continue to, and I note that the budget is tomorrow, support Canadians who are feeling pinched by foreign wars, wars in the Middle East and a number of external factors, including trade wars, that have affected their quality of life and affordability. I have to also note the systematic opposition of the Conservative leader and party to every single possible initiative that we put forward to help Canadians in need.”

“We care about making life affordable. Our heat pump rebates will save Canadians an average of over $1,000 every year, including people in the Conservative leader's community. Also, a big energy facility right outside his riding benefits from our clean fuel rules.”

“Mr. Speaker, we take affordability very seriously. That is why, in fact, many people in the Leader of the Opposition’s community and, frankly, in communities right across the country, are going to be able to, with this heating season, take advantage of the heat pump rebates we have put in place. That is going to be a very tangible way to save Canadians, on average, over $1,000 every single year. These are true savings. If the Leader of the Opposition wants to talk about clean fuel regulations, I am sure he might like to have a conversation with Imperial in Strathcona. It is right outside his riding.”
