Cathay Wagantall Conservative
“Young people will have to pay $406.6 billion just in interest on government debt over the next six years. How can the member support what this government is doing to them?”
“Mr. Speaker, my colleague has expressed our concerns on this side of the floor. I think of 18-year-olds right now facing their futures. Over the next six years, they will be going to school, getting a trade, occupation or profession, and they will be in the seat of dealing with $406.6 billion in interest over those six years added on to increasing debt. How does the member feel about the reality of what the government is doing to the next generation of Canadians?”
