Michael Guglielmin Conservative
“The Liberals are spending too much money and adding to the national debt. Paying interest on this debt takes money away from housing, health care, and tax relief. I want the Prime Minister to cut spending so life is more affordable for Canadians.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals claimed that in their latest update they would show discipline. Instead, Canadians got more debt, more spending and more of the same. The deficits are now projected to be double Trudeau’s and as debt rises, taxpayers pay the price. Public debt charges are predicted to be more than $54 billion this year, rising to $81 billion in five years. That is money that cannot go to tax relief, cannot go to housing and cannot go to health care. It is no wonder that The Globe and Mail said it is a bit rich for the finance minister to be claiming fiscal responsibility. When will the Liberal Prime Minister end his costly budgeting so Canadians can afford to live?”
