That is why we are focused on a legislative agenda that makes life more affordable for Canadians. However, it is important for members opposite, everybody in the House and Canadians across the country to understand that this is a global phenomenon. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7654693\" data-originallang=\"en\">Fortunately, inflation has been coming down. It is down to 5.2%. It is much lower than our peer economies, such as the United States or in Europe. It is actually positioning us quite well to invest in further measures that will make life more affordable, but will also make an economy that works well for everybody.</p>",

Par contre, il est important que les d\u00e9put\u00e9s d'en face, tous les d\u00e9put\u00e9s et tous les Canadiens r\u00e9alisent qu'il s'agit d'un ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne plan\u00e9taire. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7654693\" data-originallang=\"en\">Heureusement, l'inflation a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 se r\u00e9sorber.
