Madam Speaker, ABS: When buying a vehicle, ABS stands for automatic braking system. When a vehicle senses an impending danger, it brakes immediately. Canadians have no such braking system when it comes to our finances. In fact, we have the opposite. The finance minister has a different take on ABS. It is “always be spending”. Will she order an immediate pause to all discretionary spending to fight inflation, or does the Liberals' blood pact with the NDP forbid any of that?

Madam Speaker, it was the same old talking points. There is no one in this government to listen to Quebeckers. Ever since the Minister of Finance started covering for both the Prime Minister and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, there is no one we can talk to about making progress on the issues that matter to businesses and citizens. The minister's three jobs, coupled with her refusal to delegate to colleagues, has made this government blind to what is happening on the ground. Is there anyone left in this government who realizes that inflation is a real problem with real consequences that requires a response now, not in six months?
