Poilievre has made his entire round of questioning about the cost of groceries.
Despite criticizing the GST rebate the Liberals‘ announced today, it sounds like the Conservatives are willing to support it.
„The prime minister has revived a Trudeau-era rebate — which we’ll let pass,“ he said before arguing the government needs to do more to address the cost of living.

So when Doug did this provincially was it also copying Trudeau?

This is a good move, but I wish these affordability measures benefited all of the middle class.

All he did was complain about it in the House of Commons, funny how he has no issue spending a million dollars on himself, and all for a sham by-election for his own power.

Tax the middle class until they become lower class.

Remember when conservatives claimed food prices would drop if the government axed the carbon tax.

Honestly, it’d be terrible politics to oppose something that’s billed as an „affordability measure“ when your whole message has been about affordability. This is too hard to spin negatively in order to justify not voting for it, he basically has no choice but to support it since no matter what way he’d try to claim it’s „bad,“ none of them are likely to hit.

It’s a bandaid solution that doesn’t solve the root problem. But it’s better than nothing

Good to see he’s not going to complain about a tax break.

Stupid solution. Many working families don’t get this rebate. We need grocery prices lowered. Break up the monopolies.

Why is it when someone wants to access a govt program, then they are judged based on their family income. But when you have file taxes, you file individually ? Can someone please explain this how it is fair ?

Let me guess middle class won’t qualify

Rebates are a bandaid solution, which does nothing to address supply chain inefficiencies, corruption, collusion, or anything else driving grocery prices up.
I don’t support this handout model.
Fix the problem.

So Pierre is finally learning to play ball. The Davos speech really forced him to reconsider how he talks about Carney and Canada. I still don’t like him, but the best chance we have is having a functional government which includes a functional opposition.

Didn’t I just read another article that quoted him as saying it’s just another Trudeau era rebate? Does poilievre know which way is up?

For the past decade Conservatives told us that it was the job of the opposition to oppose anything and everything the governing party announces, regardless of the affect it has on Canadians.
Were they lying the whole time?

P.P. is struggling to stay in the game and opposing everything the Liberals do hasn’t worked.

It’s sad seeing how many people are against the bottom 25% of the population getting a bit of economic relief.
