Mélanie Joly Liberal
“The Conservatives do not understand the urgency in our economy and would do nothing about the trade war. Our plan is working, and the International Monetary Fund agrees. We are cutting government operating costs while investing in building projects to help our economy grow.”
“Mr. Speaker, I think that my Conservative colleagues do not understand the sense of urgency in the Canadian economy. They would look at the trade war and twiddle their thumbs while standing back and doing absolutely nothing. What we are doing, in essence, is reducing the government’s operational spending. We are making sure that we are spending less while investing in capital projects. We are making sure that we create investments. It is all working, as the IMF has confirmed. We will continue creating prosperity here at home.”
