Kelly DeRidder Conservative
“The government's plan does not make life cheaper. Working people still cannot afford food. Why is Canada the only country in the G7 with a shrinking economy?”
“Mr. Speaker, if these measures actually did anything for affordability, we would not have the lineups at the food banks that we are seeing. This exact program is going to reach fewer than half of Canadians out there who are working at jobs. I am going to repeat the question. France is facing tariffs, Germany is facing tariffs, Italy is facing tariffs. Japan is facing tariffs. Why is Canada the only country in the G7 with our economy in a recession?”
