Mr. Speaker, young people cannot afford to buy a house and are being forced to camp out in their parents' basement. Seniors are having a hard time buying food and paying for their medications. Gas is now $1.85 a litre in my riding. Meanwhile, the Liberal government is signing agreements with the NDP, which also wants to spend recklessly. The government has done nothing for the past few months. Now it is drafting its budget. How much breathing room will it give Canadians?

Mr. Speaker, the challenges Canada has faced over these past years have been numerous, and we have seen that Canadians and Canadian businesses have met them head-on and succeeded. The upcoming federal budget will showcase our government's plan to support Canadians and to grow our economy. Can the Minister of Finance inform Canadians and the House when they can expect federal budget 2022 to be presented?

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the Parliamentary Budget Officer for his important work. Our government has invested heavily in the CRA's ability to ensure international and large businesses compliance. As noted in the Parliamentary Budget Officer's report, the CRA has improved its large business tax compliance performance since 2018. This is good news. Our investments in the CRA will continue to pay off for years to come.
