Arnold Viersen Conservative
“Conservatives were right about trading with more countries instead of just the United States. Stephen Harper signed 43 trade deals to do that, and now the Liberals finally agree with our ideas. I want to know what the member thinks we should do next.”
“Madam Speaker, Conservatives are winning the argument. When Stephen Harper took office as prime minister of this country, he argued that we needed to diversify our market away from the United States, so he went on a tear to sign 43 free trade agreements around the world. Now we see that the Liberal government has finally come to its senses and has started to adopt the Conservative narrative, at least, on these things. What would the member like to see done?”
