Replying to Pierre Poilievre (Conservative)

“Mr. Speaker, Canadians are paying the price for having the only recession in the G20. Now the Prime Minister is forcing Canadians to pay $90 billion for a high-speed rail project that will destroy farms in Quebec, all without consulting farmers. Communities in regional Quebec will pay the price, yet they will not even get a station. Why is the Prime Minister sacrificing Quebec’s regions for yet another Liberal white elephant?”
