Pierre Poilievre Conservative
“Canada is the only G7 country in a recession, and more businesses are failing to pay their debts. I want the Prime Minister to take responsibility for the economy and change his policies.”
“Mr. Speaker, I understand that the Prime Minister cannot stand up for the miserable economic track record he has created. Canada is the only G7 country in a recession. Instead of attacking other people’s patriotism, why does he not take responsibility for the damage he has caused? Equifax reports that the national 60-day delinquency rate for businesses rose 11% year over year in the most recent quarter, with escalating costs and higher inflation being the main culprits. That is what the organization reports. We know the Prime Minister managed to put us in the only recession in the G7. Will he reverse these disastrous policies before he drives more people into bankruptcy?”
