Mr. Speaker, we are experiencing the highest increase in food prices in 41 years. That means families are having a very difficult time buying groceries and putting food on the table. Do members know what else has gone up? It is CEO bonuses. Neither the Liberals nor the Conservatives are willing to call out greedflation, but we are. Will the government support our demand to investigate food prices?

Mr. Speaker, the cost of pasta has increased by over 32%, which means it is getting harder for families to buy groceries. However, it is not getting harder for the CEOs of major grocery store chains. They have earned record profits and big bonuses. Clearly, CEO greed is contributing to inflation. Will the government support our demand to investigate food prices?
