Mr. Speaker, if the leader of the Conservative Party really cared about the affordability crisis Canadians are facing, he would be supporting our plan to provide dental care to seniors and young people under 18. He would be helping us provide school lunches to 400,000 more children per year. He would be supporting our measures to create child care spaces. He would be supporting our ambitious measures to create densification and build more housing. However, he prefers to play political games rather than help meet Canadians' needs.

Mr. Speaker, we recognize that Canadians are struggling with affordability challenges. That is why we are setting up programs and making investments that are helping people. I am talking about $10 day care, pharmacare for insulin and reproductive health, a code of conduct for major grocery chains to better protect consumers and a national school food program to ensure that 400,000 children will have access to meals. We will continue to be there to help Canadians and to make sure that those who are better off pay their fair share.
