Madam Speaker, the reason we are in this situation today, with housing prices doubling, food prices doubling and Canadians unable to make ends meet, is because the NDP signed a coalition agreement to support spending, thereby creating the current situation with the Liberal government.

Madam Speaker, I talk a lot about the need for good governance. We often see examples from the Liberals that are the antithesis of that. I know the member and his party are open to continuing this coalition-type arrangement that exists here. I would hope the member would stand strongly against supporting the corruption we see across the way. However, at the very base of all of this is what has happened over the last 10 or so years. Consultants have been used in government for as long as government has existed, but the proliferation of that under the Liberals, the $20 billion that has been spent on consultants, is not resulting in good policy; it is not resulting in benefits or services being offered to Canadians. We need that basic level of accountability, but the Liberals simply refuse it.

Mr. Speaker, no sooner were we free of the NDP-Liberal coalition that resulted in the most disastrous government in history, than we were caught up in a new saga with the Bloc-Liberal coalition. What is the point of the Bloc Québécois, when we know that it voted in favour of $500 billion in inflationary spending by this Prime Minister, who fattened up the bureaucracy in Ottawa with Quebeckers' money, adding 100,000 more public servants to the machinery of government? The “Liberal Bloc” is just more of the same. We saw that yesterday in the byelection in Montreal. What, then, is the point of the “Liberal Bloc” and who does it serve?

Mr. Speaker, taxes are up, costs are up, crime is up, and after nine years, time is up. Over the summer, I heard too many heartbreaking stories of folks struggling to get by. The NDP-Liberals' carbon tax is making life unaffordable. Now, after voting for it 24 times, the NDP is even saying that it is abandoning the carbon tax. So, my question to the minister is simple. Will the Liberals join their coalition partners to axe the carbon tax?

Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberals, taxes are up, costs are up, crime is up, and guess what? Time is up. This costly coalition is hurting Canadians. Over nine million Canadians do not know where their next meal is going to come from. That is a 111% increase of Canadians facing food insecurity, and quadrupling the carbon tax will only make things worse. Canadians cannot afford any more media stunts from this costly coalition. Will the Prime Minister just end the suffering and call a carbon tax election?
