With the parliamentary clock ticking down and the government yet to pass their 'affordable housing and groceries' bill—the first piece of federal legislation tabled in the fall sitting—the NDP have agreed to help the Liberals advance Bill C-56 in exchange for a series of amendments inspired by a similar bill from Leader Jagmeet Singh, CTV News has learned.

That may be true, but consumers who overspent on food, and are in this present day struggling, should get the money back in cash.

I've never had a tax break in all the years that I've been robbed by grocery stores.

In other words, we haven't been collecting nearly as much as what's been taken from us.
