Madam Speaker, the fall economic statement gets a failing grade. The house is burning down and the Liberals, rather than pouring water on the fire, are pouring fuel on the flames. Spending is out of control, and it has led to inflation. One and a half million Canadians went to the food bank last month, yet the Liberals still plan to triple their tax on groceries, home heating and fuel. Will the Liberals cancel their plan to triple the tax on home heating, groceries and fuel?

Madam Speaker, everything costs more. The cost of food has gone up 10% and the cost of housing has doubled since the Prime Minister took office. Diesel fuel now costs over $2.50 a litre in Quebec. Rather than helping families, the government wants to take more money from workers' pay cheques. The only thing we are asking the government to do is to not increase taxes. Will it do that in 2023?

Madam Speaker, we have always been there for farmers. We have always supported farmers. Unlike the Conservatives, we did not cut $500 million for farmers. We put $500 million back into the budget for farmers. As the hon. member knows, there is a fuel rebate charge that farmers get back for the price on pollution.
