Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“The government lets companies move Canadian jobs to countries that use forced labour. This hurts our workers and lowers their pay. The Prime Minister has not spoken out against slave labour and genocide in Xinjiang. I want him to condemn it today.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals announced $600 million to stop two shipments and they stand with workers everywhere in the world. Are they kidding? They are undermining Canadian wages by having multinationals take away Canadian jobs and give them to regimes that use forced labour and slavery. Now, Canadian workers are facing potential tariff threats that will compound the cost to Canada. The Prime Minister has never condemned the genocide and slavery in Xinjiang province because of his corporate interests. Will he stand up today and say that he is condemning that kind of forced labour in Xinjiang?”
