Luc Berthold Conservative
“Canada is in a recession while the Prime Minister spends thousands of tax dollars on luxury food. I want him to tell us what kind of recession he created.”
“Mr. Speaker, under this Liberal Prime Minister, Canada is the only G20 country in the midst of a recession. While families are counting every penny at the grocery store, the Liberal Prime Minister is travelling in the lap of luxury on the taxpayer’s dime. We are talking about $4,213 for crème brûlée, $3,800 for chocolate mousse and $593 for Normandy buttercups. While Canadians are stretching their budgets, the Liberal Prime Minister is splurging on luxuries. I am going to ask him a very simple question. Is the recession that he himself created a technical recession or a full-blown Liberal recession?”
