Mr. Speaker, after eight years under the Liberal Prime Minister, Canadians cannot afford groceries, which are up 11%. They cannot afford rent; it has doubled. Nine out of 10 young people say that they will never be able to afford a home. To add insult to injury, he is tripling the carbon tax. Will the Prime Minister take responsibility for the cost-of-living crisis that he created or at least get out of the way so we can fix it?

Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has been in that chair for eight years, and for millions of Canadians, things have never been worse. Inflation is at the highest it has been in 40 years, interest rates are the highest in a generation and home prices and rents are the highest they have ever been. The Prime Minister can try to deflect responsibility; he can try to blame someone or something else. Conservatives are fighting to keep the heat on and the taxes off. Will he at least do the same?
