Ryan Turnbull Liberal
“Our economic problems are caused by global events, not this government. Other countries are facing the exact same troubles. We are helping Canadians afford life and responsibly investing in our economy.”
“Mr. Speaker, I do not know where the member opposite lives exactly or what world he is living in, but to say that global shocks to the Canadian economy that put challenges on Canadian families are the government’s fault is just lunacy, since he asked me. I think Canadians out there know the reality is that the world is going through a number of global shocks. Every single country that I have talked to at the OECD is going through exactly the same things. Our government is stepping up to help Canadians, to meet them where they are at, to offer affordability measures and supports while we boost the Canadian economy with new investment within our fiscal capacity, which is the responsible thing to do.”
