Last week, the Liberals announced they would provide free tampons to government employees. And force federally regulated companies to do the same.

This is insulting to these working women.

As if they were not responsible enough to take care of themselves.

As if their vote could be bought with free tampons, six months before the elections!

As usual, I was the only politician in Ottawa who denounced this blatant vote-buying scheme. And because of this, Liberal minister Mélanie Joly played the victim and called me sexist.

Friend, this is a symbol of everything that’s wrong in Canadian politics. The old parties are not trying to solve important national issues anymore. All they’re doing is offer freebies to interest groups and targeted clienteles to get their support.
