Mr. Speaker, the inflation and affordability crisis facing Canadians right now is a direct result of the Prime Minister's failed economic policies. When the Prime Minister of a G7 country admits that he does not even think about monetary policy, it is Canadian families and businesses that pay the price, and they are. They are paying the price with higher payroll taxes and higher costs for the necessities of life, like food, shelter, heating and clothing, and it is getting worse. Families need a break. Will the Prime Minister stop his planned tax hikes on Canadian paycheques and his plan to triple the carbon tax?

Mr. Speaker, monetary policy is, of course, the province of the Bank of Canada, whose independence we on this side of the House respect. We know that times are tough for Canadian families. That is why I am really glad today that we in this House have overcome petty, partisan squabbles and are coming together to support the GST tax credit. It is going to get nearly $500 to Canadian families that need it the most. It is time to do the same thing on dental care for kids and on rental support.
