Mr. Speaker, Canadians are now getting the bill for the Prime Minister's $500-billion inflationary deficit. Today, interest rates are being raised again. A family that bought a typical home five years ago with a typical mortgage that is now up for renewal will pay $7,000 more a year. The Prime Minister said that the government was taking on debt so that Canadians would not have to. Who is going to make the extra mortgage payments?

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister caused this inflation crisis. Even Mark Carney, who will be the successor to the current Liberal leader, is saying that inflation is a homegrown problem. He is right. It is caused by the half trillion dollars of inflationary deficits that have bid up the cost of the goods we buy and the interest we pay. Today, rates went up another half point, meaning many families will be handing in their keys to the banks, because they will not be able to afford those bills. Has the Prime Minister been briefed by his officials on how many Canadians will lose their homes because of the higher interest rates that his inflationary policies have caused?

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister cannot tell us who got the $1.2 million. He blames public servants for the mistake. Surely in the week since he learned of this misappropriation he could have found out where the money went, but he has not. That is not the only example. There was also the $400,000 trip to London, for which there was a $6,000 suite for one night. It is just another example of the massive Liberal waste that has contributed to the inflationary deficits we now face. If he cannot tell us which company got the money, can he at least tell us who got the $6,000 a night room?

Mr. Speaker, record inflation is a choice for the Liberals, after causing it with the $500 billion of inflationary deficit, much of which has nothing to do with COVID. They blame everything and everyone else. The Bank of Canada governor says that inflation is homegrown. Another past governor says it is domestic too. Now struggling Canadians are facing yet another rate hike that makes a bad situation worse. The Prime Minister is not letting up. He is raising taxes and, worse, he is still spending. Canadians know how we got here. They just want to know how he could be so irresponsible.

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister's disastrous inflationary policies and reckless spending on the backs of Canadians is sending more families into homeless shelters and food banks. It is up 30%. The Prime Minister’s climate-zealot ideology is keeping billions of dollars of investment in our responsible Canadian energy sector in the ground, increasing home heating costs 50% to 100%, and making more families freeze in the dark. Will the Prime Minister take responsibility for his inflationary problems that caused the Bank of Canada's interest rate hikes because of just—

Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government continues with wasteful spending. There is WE Charity, storytellers for the Prime Minister, the infrastructure bank, fridges for Loblaws, cheques to Mastercard, the arrive “scam” app and expensive hotels, just to name a few. Hard-working Canadians who send their money to Ottawa are not being respected. Canadians cannot afford this costly coalition. Will the Liberals end their inflationary spending?
