Mr. Speaker, after eight long years of the Liberal government, Canadians are realizing that elections have consequences and that they have walked to the far side of a disappointing decision. After eight years, Canadians have seen their paycheques dwindle so that even the most basic necessities are out of reach. After eight years, seniors, especially those on fixed incomes, are having to choose between eating and heating. Conservatives would keep the heat on and take the tax off. After eight years, food prices are at all-time highs, forcing families to make impossible choices. This has led to over 1.5 million Canadians visiting their local food banks in just one month. After eight years, young people are seeing the dream of home ownership evaporate due to the government's runaway spending, which is causing sky-high inflation and ever-rising interest rates. After eight years, our farmers, transporters and small business owners have all experienced the devastating consequences of soaring input costs. After eight years, Canadians are desperately needing their hopes restored and wanting back the country they know and love.
