Federal Conservatives say the Liberal dental-care and rental-housing relief legislation will only add to inflation without providing relief from the rising cost of living.
MPs today are debating the government’s legislation to create an annual $650 dental benefit for low- and middle-income families for every child under the age of 12.
The bill also gives low-income renters a one-time payment of $500.
The Conservatives are pushing an amendment to quash the bill entirely.
