Arpan Khanna Conservative
“Canada is in a recession and many people cannot afford groceries. At the same time, the Prime Minister spent $200,000 on fancy meals for himself. Taxpayers should not pay for his expensive lifestyle.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals’ message to Canadians is “Suck it up, buttercup”, because excuses on tariffs will not work anymore. Canada is the only country in the G7 to be in a recession. Food bank usage is at a record high. Families are cutting back on their groceries. They are cancelling their summer plans and skipping meals just to get by. What does the Prime Minister do? He blows $200,000 on fancy meals for himself. Does the Prime Minister not realize that this is Canada, not Brookfield, and that taxpayers are not his personal bankers?”
