Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“Canadian workers cannot afford rent or groceries. I blame the Prime Minister for this bad economy, and he should come here and take responsibility for it.”
“Mr. Speaker, yes, Canadian workers are tired. They are tired of working six days a week and not being able to afford their rent. They are tired of showing up at the grocery store and having to hand products back at the checkout because they cannot afford to pay for them. They are tired of making their way over to the food bank and finding that the food bank is empty. They are tired of a Prime Minister who causes this recession and then does not have the courage or the decency to show up in the House of Commons and take ownership of— Some hon. members: Oh, oh!”
