Yves-François Blanchet Bloc Québécois
“The rules for tariffs changed on April 6. The Prime Minister promised help for businesses in the economic update, but there was no help in it. Can I trust him this time?”
“Mr. Speaker, that sounds like good news, but to err on the side of caution, I would remind the House that the way tariffs are calculated changed on April 6. Two weeks ago, I asked the Prime Minister if he would take action. What I got was pretty much radio silence. I asked him again the following week. He said that there would be measures to help businesses in the economic statement. However, there was no help for businesses in the economic statement. Can I believe him this time?”
