Mr. Speaker, that side ran on a platform to do even more deficit spending than we did. On this side, we have an affordability plan. We created the Canada child benefit, which is right now putting $13,666 into the pockets of a single mother with two kids. We have indexed OAS and are increasing it. We are making sure that there is a $500 home credit for people struggling with housing. There is no plan for affordability on that side, but there is a clear plan on this side.

Mr. Speaker, what the NDP is putting forward is insincere and rings hollow. Just look at the Canada child benefit. In my city, Edmonton, a single mother with two children will receive $13,660. That is not $7, it is over $13,000. In Edmonton, a mother and father will get $10,000 from our child care program. That is not $7, it is $10,000. The NDP needs to get its facts straight and not tell tall tales in the House.
