Madam Speaker, I rise today to wish everyone in my riding of Sault Ste. Marie a holiday season filled with joy, a heart with love and a life with blessings. As we continue to deal with the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, let us embrace the beautiful traditions this year that bring us together around the table with our family, our friends and our loved ones. I give a special holiday greeting, as well, to our Canadian Armed Forces members and their families who serve in Canada and overseas, and I thank them for their sacrifices, which keep us safe and protect our way of life. Let us also continue our resolve and hope and support for the people of Ukraine and Iran, and many other people in the world who are in conflict. Let all our voices call out for peace on earth and goodwill to all. Again, I wish a merry Christmas and a very healthy, happy and prosperous new year to everyone in Canada.

Madam Speaker, because of the Liberal government, Christmas will be more expensive for Canadians than ever before. Of Canadians, 52% are worried about buying gifts this Christmas, 61% are worried about putting gas in their cars to go visit loved ones over the holidays, and 53% are worried about buying groceries for Christmas dinner. This is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. When will the Liberal government give Canadians a break and axe the carbon tax?

Madam Speaker, the Christmas holidays are two weeks away. Families will gather around the table. However, all families are worried about inflation right now. What is more, inflation is hitting them where it hurts the most: food, which is a basic necessity. There is one thing that the government could do immediately that is entirely within its control. I am talking about taxes. Will the government promise not to increase taxes in 2023, yes or no?
