Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Liberals doubled Canada's debt, housing costs, and food bank visits. Now the new Prime Minister is spending even more. I want to know if he will keep this year's deficit under $31 billion, or spend more than that.”
“Mr. Speaker, more debt, more costs, more taxes. The Prime Minister is just another Liberal. The Liberal government doubled the debt, doubled housing costs and doubled food bank lineups. The previous prime minister left behind an outrageous $31-billion deficit for this fiscal year. Since that time, the new Liberal Prime Minister has been spending at even higher rates and putting it on the national credit card. That means the bankers make more and Canadian workers and seniors keep less. Will the Prime Minister at least cap the deficit at Trudeau’s $31 billion or will he break through that limit and put it on the credit card?”
