2 million Canadians had to use the food bank in one month alone this is a direct result of liberals and conservatives who continue to to search and distract from what’s going on when the real reason of what’s what’s causing this Canadians know really well when they were asked
The question greedy CEOs and why won the Prime Minister understand what Canadians already do Mr Speaker we understand we see firsthand how Canadians are struggling with the cost of food groceries and housing that’s why we’re taking concrete actions uh to support them through this whether it be uh with the grocery rebate
Whether it be with $10 a day child care whether it be with a dental care that’s going to support young children uh whether it be uh the initiatives we’re taking across this country to create good jobs and economic growth whether it be uh with the GST rebate checks whether
It be uh with uh the the uh climate action rebate that’s putting money in people’s pockets right across the country we’re going to continue to be there for Canadians as we had in years past as we lifted hundreds of thousands of kids out of poverty as we’ve lifted
Over a million Canadians out of poverty we know there’s more work to do and we are going to continue to do it Mr Speaker The Honorable member from bernabe South well liberals and and conservatives continue to distract Canadians know corporate greed is driving up the cost of food great milon
Can visit 2 million Canadians visit food banks whilst profits of large grocery stores were close to4 billion when the conservatives and liberals have a choice they always always choose CEOs over Canadians so the NDP forced them to come back before the committee to answer the questions they refuse to ask will the
Prime Minister admit that his government’s approach is a total failure the right honorable prime minister Mr Speaker our objective is to make life more affordable and to make sure that companies pay their just part the minister for Innovation met CEOs from large grocery chains as well as producers local and international food
Producers so that we can highlight the necessity in making groceries more affordable I hope that all members will join us so that we can adopt a Housing Act and affordable grocery act as rapidly as possible in order to improve competitivity in the field leader of the opposition it’s like a
Parallel universe every time the NDP leader stands up and attacks the very government he’s a part of and laments how miserable life is for Canadians after two years of him being part of voting for quadrupling the carbon tax driving up inflationary deficits and of course driving 2 million people to the
Food banks in a single month he blames Greed for all this hunger he’s right it is the greed of liberal and NDP politicians who keep taking more and more from Canadians will they reverse these disastrous [Applause] policies the right honorable Minister speaker all of us in this house see how
Canadians are struggling we just have different responses to it the conservative party is proposing cuts to government services cuts to Investments that are going to support seniors cuts to Investments that are going to support families whether it’s dental care or Child Care the conservative party thinks
You can cut your way to Prosperity when the reality is Mr Speaker are investments in child care in uh in uh in Dental Care uh in supports for seniors in supports for students have actually helped Canadians through some difficult times and we continue to be there for them into the coming
Years being there for Canadians he’s taking money out of their pockets and if you don’t believe me listen to the governor of the Bank of Canada who said and I quote today government spending will be adding to demand more than Supply is growing and in an environment
Where we are trying to moderate spending and get inflation down that is not helpful that adds to the voices of the former liberal Finance Minister John Manley who accused this prime minister of pressing on the inflationary gas pedal will the Prime Minister tell us does he agree with the bank Governor
That his government spending is not helpful on [Applause] inflation Mr Speaker Canadians know we need support and we need more Supply on the housing housing crisis and that’s why we are there investing with municipalities to deliver more housing in Bramton our housing agreement will spur the construction of more than
24,000 homes over the next decade that’s an investment that the leader of the opposition would cut in other cities like Rick Richmond Hill monton and Ajax just this week are passing more ambitious housing plans at their local councils in response to the federal housing accelerator while the leader of
The opposition would rip up these agreements we’re focused on Building Solutions that’ll work for communities right across the country

Yeah build more homes for investors to buy. No hope for middle class in this country.
They know if an election is held , libs and ndp won't see power for a long time. So,, we have to suffer to make their point. 2 years, 2 days? I know who Im voting for.
Is he out to lunch or what? Why is he talking when he voted for this excessive cost of living through carbon tax and every other bad policy.
Jagmeet is way too dumb to be a human
Mr Singh needs to stop shouting at himself about the economy. He held Mr Trudeau's hand and backed him in all of this misery.
Singh is mainly responsible for inflow of illegal immigrants specially from India. He must go he will never work for canada he will only serve his personal interests
How the f child care and dental helps an individual who is not married or doesn’t have any children?
If this NDP guy is so worried, why isn’t he calling the elections!?
NDP CLOWN is responsible for propping up this terrible government, even while criticizing them
Strange that speeches are accepted at face value without figures to support the claims !
Singh is a snake
Justin is a clown
Poili is a hope
There should be a screening process to access food banks. How many of them have the latest iPhone?
Ok Singh…..?
Let’s go Pierre!!!!!! ????????????
5:00 he had since 2015 to fix housing. Trudeau deserves jail
Are those few CEOs the reason why our economy is poop?
Long short short , inflation in Canada was caused by the Bank of Canada printing $600 billion over 3 years .
Most of this printed money was used to pay for Trudeau's and Freeland's deficit budgets .
.
Trudeau is actually transferring wealth .
He is having money printed , which is depreciating the savings , incomes and pensions of Canadians .
Then he is spending this printed money targeted on the Montreal – Ottawa – GTA corridor
Jughead’s beard looks like it’s full of bird poo
If there is greed in the industry why don't we see more grocery stores being built?
With a net worth of 96 million dollars, and not even ever having to shop for his families food or buy gas for his car shows how stupid we are.
How can anyone still support NDP and Singh? They are part of the Justinflation policies that are destroying Canadian's economies! Back in 2020, Poilievre literally told the entire HOC we would have inflation if Liberal policies of lockdown and money printing were implemented. And now here we are! Shame on Singh for being part of and propping up the Liberal crony government.
