Mr. Speaker, Dr. Guylaine Larose, a pediatrician at CHU Sainte-Justine, is saying she has never seen the emergency room so busy. She has never seen so many children in respiratory distress, so many exhausted doctors and nurses, and so many distraught parents. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister sits back and does nothing. When are the Liberals going to wake up and offer help, like they did during the pandemic, to save our health care system?

Mr. Speaker, leadership means finding solutions, not hiding behind excuses. We have another serious threat to our health care system in the form of Danielle Smith's sovereignty act in Alberta. Albertans are worried about their health care system, and the act is going to do nothing to deal with the problem. In fact, it might make things even worse. People in Alberta are worried that Danielle Smith will use the sovereignty act to undermine Canadian laws, like the Canada Health Act, and make patients pay to access hospital services. What is the Prime Minister doing to stop Danielle Smith from destroying health care in Alberta? What is he doing to protect health care so Albertans get the care they need?

Mr. Speaker, first-time food bank use in Ontario is up 65%. That is a staggering number. At the same time, corporate grocery stores are making huge profits. A report indicated that Loblaws is making $1 million extra in excess profits per day. Corporate greed is absolutely driving up the cost of food. What is this Prime Minister going to do for families in this upcoming holiday season who are worried about the cost of food? What is he going to do tackle greedflation, and how about those families?

Mr. Speaker, the Auditor General recently sounded the alarm that the Liberal government is not assessing whether its steps to reduce homelessness are actually working or not. It is an indictment and a failure of its approach to homelessness. The reality is that indigenous communities are bearing the brunt of this failure, as indigenous community members are 11 times more likely to experience homelessness. After years of broken promises, will the Prime Minister finally commit to a timeline for a fully funded, indigenous-led urban, rural and northern housing strategy?
