Mr. Speaker, after nine years of debt, taxes and inflation courtesy of the Prime Minister and the Bloc Québécois, Canadians are hungry, literally. According to a report by Food Banks Canada, 50% of Canadians report that their situation is worse than last year. One-quarter of Canada's young adults have to rely on food banks. Why is the Prime Minister forcing Canadians to feed his morbidly obese government when they cannot even feed themselves?

Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberal Prime Minister's taxes, debt, inflation and promises, Canadians are literally hungry. According to the Food Bank's Canada report, 50% of Canadians say they are worse off than a year ago. 25% have food insecurity, and a quarter of young adults went to a food bank in three months alone this year. Why is it that Canadians who cannot feed themselves have to keep feeding his morbidly obese government?

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has been making exactly the same promises for nine long years, yet the NDP-Liberal government has doubled housing costs, doubled the debt and increased the size of the bureaucracy by 50%. Now he wants to quadruple the carbon tax, all to deliver two million people to a food bank every single month. If government programs were really going to solve the problem he caused, then why are Canadians so hungry?
