During question period in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre hotly debated the country’s affordability crisis and what’s being done to make life more affordable.

Following the recent release of data about food bank usage in Canada, Poilievre asked Trudeau: “Why is it that Canadians who can't feed themselves have to keep feeding his morbidly obese government?”

Trudeau said social programs like the senior dental care plan and school lunch programs will help Canadians. However, Poilievre criticized the school lunch program, claiming zero meals have been served.

“If government programs were really going to solve the problem he caused, then why are Canadians so hungry?” Poilievre asked.

Poilievre also took aim at carbon pricing, reiterating his claims that it contributes to rising costs of living. He asked, “If it [carbon tax] gets that high and people are all starving in the streets, will that stop the forest fires?” Trudeau defended the policy, claiming rebates help Canadians while fighting climate change.
