About this listen

Affordability has become one of the biggest stress points for families. Earlier this week, the federal government announced new measures aimed at easing some of that pressure, including a significant boost to the GST credit, now called the Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit. Anna Gainey, Secretary of State and MP for Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Westmount, spoke to Andrew Carter.
