“We will only take the best trade deal for Canada. Our economy is strong. Wages are beating inflation, foreign investment is way up, and we are creating lots of jobs. Trade wars are hard, but we will win this one, and we want the opposition to help us.”
“Mr. Speaker, as my colleagues across the way have heard countless times, we will continue to make sure we get the best deal, not just any deal. Let us talk about the last year. Wages have grown faster than inflation every month that the Prime Minister has been Prime Minister. FDI, foreign direct investment, is the highest in 18 years, double that of the next nation in the G7. We have record oil production, and non-U.S. trade is way up. Last year we created more jobs than the United States did. Trade wars are brutal, but we are going to win this trade war. We want the member’s help doing it.”
