Mr. Speaker, Canada's food report for 2024 revealed that Canadian families will have to pay roughly $700 more next year for groceries. Basic food staples such as meat, vegetables and baking goods will all increase 5% to 7%. Canadians cannot afford this. Rents are rising faster than wages for the first time in 60 years. Will the Prime Minister, for once in his political life, listen to Canadians and axe the carbon tax for businesses, farmers, first nations and families for good?

Mr. Speaker, it is no wonder food bank usage and the need for food programs are exploding. It is because the Prime Minister's taxes are directly making food prices more expensive. The rising cost of everything is not sustainable for Canadians. After eight long years of the Prime Minister and his NDP enablers, families are forced to choose between paying rent or putting food on the table. When will the tired Liberal-NDP government share some Christmas joy, axe the tax and deliver some relief for Canadians?
