“I want the member to explain what good things are in this economic statement. I do not see anything in it that helps the steel and aluminum sectors deal with Donald Trump's 25% tariffs.”
“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Beauce for his remarks. He and I have something in common. We both come from former Créditiste regions. That is worth pointing out. He told us that he was making a non‑partisan appeal. I would like to hear him elaborate. Can he name any good things that came out of the economic statement, particularly in relation to the 25% tariffs that Donald Trump imposed on all products containing steel and aluminum? Can he think of anything that the Liberals have done to help people in the sector? I personally do not see anything. I would like to hear his thoughts. Is he more optimistic than he was over the last month with his hockey pool? I would also like to hear his thoughts on that.”
