Mr. Speaker, that response was completely out of touch with what Canadians are going through. The last time Canadians saw inflation surpass 5%, they were hearing the word “Internet” for the first time. Our finance minister continues to ignore and only compare Canada with others to justify Canada's inflation. Other countries in the G7, including the U.S., Germany and the United Kingdom, acknowledge their high inflation and have announced various plans to tackle inflation in their countries. When will the Minister of Finance announce her plans on how she will tackle inflation in Canada?

  • Re: Bill C-8 
Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech. I would like to know if my colleague shares my belief, and that of the NDP, that the economic update released a few months ago and the finance bills squandered opportunities to make up for all the cuts to health care. That happened under the former Harper government. The Liberal government has continued with these cuts, so people are struggling in the health care sector. Whether they are in Quebec or British Columbia, people everywhere are having a hard time. Does my colleague believe that these were missed opportunities for the government, which is not providing adequate funding for our health care system?
