Mr. Speaker, let me be clear about what the Conservatives are saying. They are saying they would not have created CERB to keep millions of Canadians at home. They would not have created the wage subsidy that kept 60,000 workers employed in Alberta's oil industry alone. They would not have offered rent subsidies that kept tens of thousands of businesses afloat. Their cryptocurrency plan is not a plan. It is the worst plan this House has ever heard of. They have no plan.

It was $900 last year. This is just incredible. That is a 68% increase in his heating as a result of the government's policies, and they still want to impose another $360 in new carbon taxes on his oil tank. Many people in my community have to choose between heat and eating. When will these Liberals stop their triple—
