John Brassard Conservative
“The Prime Minister's policies caused our recession and hurt Canadians. Millions of people are struggling to buy food and pay their bills, while rich friends of the government do well.”
“Mr. Speaker, Canada’s decline did not start last April. It was catalyzed six years ago, when the current Prime Minister was Trudeau’s economic adviser. The Prime Minister’s fingerprints are all over the failed policies that have caused Canada to be the only G7 country in a recession. While well‑connected Liberals and corporate buddies are doing well, the crumbs the Liberals feed to families, seniors and young people cannot mask the fact that 60% of Canadians feel anxious about their finances, 40% are losing sleep, 38% have food insecurity and 2.2 million Canadians visited food banks last year. Does that sound like everything is working well?”
