This is the result of seven years of this government's inflationary policies.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7314893\" data-originallang=\"fr\">What is the Liberals' solution today? It is to raise taxes, including by tripling the carbon tax on gas, home heating and groceries.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7314894\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Will they cancel this plan to triple the tax?</p>",
