Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The Prime Minister is hurting the economy with high taxes and too many rules. He picks a few favoured businesses to get special help and avoid regulations, while ignoring small businesses. He should let the free market work so all businesses can do well.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister wants to be king of the economy. He is holding on to all kinds of regulations that are hurting businesses. Businesses that are getting ahead are being slapped down with hefty taxes, except for a small group personally chosen by the Prime Minister. The member is absolutely right: Under the law, these powers all belong to the Prime Minister. That is no exaggeration. These special businesses will be able to sidestep all the rules and receive subsidies and gifts from the fund, which opens the door to corruption and leaves millions of small businesses out in the cold. Why not open up the free market so that all businesses can prosper?”
