“Canada had the richest middle class in the world 12 years ago. Now, after 11 years under the Liberals, middle-class Canadians are suffering and owe record amounts of debt. I want to know how the government let this happen in a country with so many resources.”
“Mr. Speaker, 12 years ago, the front page of The New York Times declared Canada as having the richest, most prosperous middle class in the world. Eleven years after the Liberals took office, as my colleague mentioned in his speech, there is record household debt and delinquency, and the middle class is suffering. How is this possible in a country that is so blessed with the resources that Canada has?”
