Wayne Long Liberal
“Our economy is doing well. Canada has the best debt-to-GDP ratio, the fastest growth, and the best credit rating in the G7. The Prime Minister understands business, while the Conservative leader has never worked in the real economy and has done nothing useful in his decades in Parliament.”
“Mr. Speaker, do members know what a good leader does? A good leader does not raise his hands up, blame everybody else and offer nothing constructive as a solution. On this side of the House, let us look at some economic facts: the best net debt-to-GDP in the G7, the fastest-growing economy in the G7 and the best credit rating in the G7. On this side of the House, we have a Prime Minister with economic and business credentials. The leader has never worked one day in the economy and is in his third decade in the House producing nothing.”
