Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for such an important question. The concerns of first nations, Inuit and Métis are truly at the heart of the NDP's work on social justice and true reconciliation. I want to congratulate my colleague from Nunavut for all the work she is doing, especially on indigenous housing and on having a housing program for and by indigenous peoples. Housing is a major issue in the north in general, where people have felt the effects of Conservative budget cuts and are now feeling the effects of inadequate Liberal investments. These people can count on the NDP, which will continue to speak out about the challenges of housing and the cost of the groceries for first nations, Inuit, Métis and all northerners.

Mr. Speaker, obviously the hon. member for Nunavut comes from an area of this country that is greatly affected by climate change. I would also say to the hon. member that members on this side of the aisle and I will always work with the member opposite to improve the lives of the people living in Nunavut, and all indigenous peoples and first nations, to ensure they have the resources to succeed, and to continue the nation-to-nation relationship and collaboration that has taken place since day one in 2015.

Mr. Speaker, sadly, empty words from those Liberals will not fill empty stomachs in Nunavut. Kyra Kilabuk, an Inuit woman, shares photos of current food prices in Nunavut on her social media. A can of Campbell's potato soup is $11. A medium box of Cheerios is $17. A small package of ham is $18. After eight years, Nunavut knows the Prime Minister is not worth the cost. When will the Prime Minister finally listen to Canadians and scrap the carbon tax on farmers, first nations and families?

I am sorry, but I have already heard some “no”s. The hon. member does not have unanimous consent. The hon. member for Nunavut is rising on a point of order.

I am just going to ask the member to please get straight to the point. The Chair would like to recognize her for the final time. Can the hon. member for Nunavut please raise the point of order she wants to raise?

Uqaqtittiji, the member for Prince George—Peace River—Northern Rockies was misleading this House about the existence of first nations in Nunavut. I would like the party to realize that there are three—
