“Even though we are in a trade war, Canada's economy is strong. We have a 2.7 billion dollar trade surplus, and our economy is growing faster than Germany, Japan, and Italy. Our policies will save the average family 20,000 dollars.”
“Mr. Speaker, contrary to what we are hearing from the other side, we recognize that we are in a trade war. Despite this, Canada is in a position of strength. We heard today that Canada posted a $2.7-billion trade surplus, the highest in 15 months. Our economy is growing nearly twice as fast as that of Germany and Japan and nearly three times as fast as that of Italy. We are going to be there to support Canadians. We are going to make sure we create affordability. In fact, $20,000 is what the average family is going to be able to save, thanks to our government’s policies. We are going to build this country strong and support Canadians at the same time.”
