Stephanie Kusie Conservative
“Government spending has put Canada in a recession. Food and gas costs are up, and the debt is growing. When will the Prime Minister change his economic plan?”
“Mr. Speaker, Canadians have had it with the Prime Minister’s costly credit card budget. The deficit is $65.3 billion, and this year, Canadians will pay $58.7 billion on debt interest. Food inflation rose 3.8% in April, with gas prices surging 28.6% last month alone. Canada is the only G7 nation in a recession. The Prime Minister is more focused on his American stock portfolio and his friends at Brookfield than on Canadians. How many more negative quarters of growth will it take for him to change course?”
