Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Prime Minister doubled the deficit from 40 billion dollars to almost 80 billion dollars. I want him to cut government waste and corporate handouts to lower the deficit.”
“Mr. Speaker, the reason the Prime Minister hates answering real questions is that it breaks the illusion. Although he would have us believe otherwise, he doubled the deficit Justin Trudeau left us. It is unbelievable. Trudeau left behind a $40‑billion deficit. The deficit is now almost $80 billion. Will he cut back on the bureaucracy, the corporate welfare, the tax havens and other waste to bring down his out-of-control deficit?”
