Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“Canada is the only country in the G7 and G20 in a recession, and people are losing their homes and savings. Will the Prime Minister tell Canadians if our recession is technical or real?”
“Mr. Speaker, the question is for the Prime Minister about the real human cost of Canada being the only country in the G7, and in the G20, that is in a recession. Brad from Ontario wrote me to say that his family hung on during the Trudeau years, but since the Liberal Prime Minister took over, he is at risk of losing everything. He sold his home and had to get rid of all of the savings he had accumulated for his retirement. Will the Prime Minister have the decency to stand up, look Brad in the eye and tell Brad if we are in a technical recession or a real recession?”
