“The International Monetary Fund says Canada manages its money better than any other G7 country. I want people in the member's riding to read our economic update to see how well our economy is doing.”
“Mr. Speaker, I understand the question fully. I would like to point out to my colleague that the International Monetary Fund is a very important organization. Practically 90% of countries across the world belong to the fund. It plays an important role in comparing economies across the world. What it states, with respect to Canada, is very important. Basically, in April, it stated that Canada, among the G7, is the most fiscally responsible country. It takes a very important position. It speaks strongly about Canada. There are so many other indicators that we could point to, and that is why I encourage all the citizens from my colleague’s riding to read the spring economic update and to see and take good note of the many positive economic indicators.”
