Madam Speaker, the cost of living continues to affect Canadians. In rural ridings like mine, we do not have access to transit. Workers have to use a car to get to work. With rising gas prices, Canadians are having a hard time making ends meet. The Conservative Party moved a motion to pause the carbon tax hike, but our greedy Prime Minister only sees dollar signs, not the difficulties being faced by ordinary working people. Why is the government unwilling to give Canadians a break so they can catch up after a two-year pandemic?

Madam Speaker, planting season has arrived and we are expecting a large number of temporary foreign workers. Unfortunately, many companies are still waiting for their workers, even though they got the ball rolling back in late 2021. Is the Minister of Immigration incapable of planning ahead? This problem has been going on for years. Once again, this government is in reaction mode, and our farmers are the ones who will pay the price. What does the minister have to say to the many farmers who must delay planting or even reduce the amount of land to be planted?
