Mr. Speaker, after eight years under this Liberal government, access to home ownership has become extremely difficult. With mortgage rates rising by 52% to 95.2% in some regions of Quebec, it has become almost impossible for young people to take out a mortgage. This Prime Minister is far too costly and is definitely not worth the cost of mortgage payments. Will the Prime Minister listen to the millions of Canadians who are struggling and rein in his inflationary policies once and for all?

Mr. Speaker, this government's policies have forced the Bank of Canada to increase the interest rate 10 times, with devastating effects. Here is the latest example. Approximately 20% of mortgages at the country's big banks are in negative amortization. What does that mean? It means that people's monthly payments are not enough to cover the interest. The unpaid interest is growing and being added to the balance. These loans will never be paid off. When will the Liberals put an end to their inflationary deficits so that interest rates will drop and Canadians are able to stay in their homes?

Mr. Speaker, since this Prime Minister took office, the average cost of mortgage payments has doubled in this country. Worse yet, because of the successive increases in interest rates, the cost of interest on mortgage payments was up by 26.4% in March compared to February. It is the largest increase ever recorded. Canadians continue to go into debt and have to give up their dream of home ownership. Will the Prime Minister finally take measures to curb the inflation he himself created?
