“Over 100,000 jobs have been lost this year, and Canada is in a recession. Families are worried about keeping their jobs and buying food. I want to know why the Prime Minister is avoiding our questions instead of dealing with this economic crisis.”
“Mr. Speaker, that minister’s cherry-picking skills would put even the best fruit farmer to shame. Over 100,000 jobs have been lost since the beginning of the year, and business investment has declined for five straight quarters, but the Liberal government pretends that everything is fine. Families in my community have real questions about how they are going to make ends meet, put food on the table or just keep their jobs. The Liberal Prime Minister’s response is to go into hiding. He has been dodging the cameras and our questions for five days. Now that we have a real economic crisis, why is the Liberal Prime Minister missing in action, and why is Canada the only G7 country in a recession?”
