Madam Speaker, what I see from the Liberals is that they want to hide from accountability and transparency behind computer screens. We hear public health officials telling us that we are moving out of the pandemic, and the rest of the world has moved back to working like normal. We have an institution here. We have been in this place for over 150 years, and we have been able to keep Parliament going when people had other illnesses, or worse, for many years. Why do the Liberals want to continue to hide from democracy and hide behind a screen instead of being here in person in this place, where people from my riding of Lambton—Kent—Middlesex elected me to be? We should be in this place. When we have rural Internet connectivity problems in places like my riding, where we have unstable Internet, it does not work. We need to be in this place. It has worked for over 150 years, and we need to keep being here.

Mr. Speaker, Please allow me this delineation.I have heard it said that this crisis throughout our great nation is nothing more than just inflation.I remember prorogation and attempts to hinder accountability beneath our station.We should take it as humiliation to see Canada's economy suffer from such stagnation.The people demand compensation from a government that does not show trepidation to bankrupt future generations.Oh how we will come to see this reprobation and how it has been said without hesitation.It could have been better had we shown conservation, instead of a continuation of the poor excuse of “it is just inflation.”
