Discussion · Orders of the Day
Carlos Leitão Liberal
“Our economy is under serious stress because of the trade war with the United States. The Americans want our manufacturing jobs. If we want more jobs for young people, we must deal with this threat from the United States.”
“Mr. Speaker, if there is one thing we can agree on, it is that the Canadian economy is indeed under severe stress. That stress is coming from the trade war. That stress is coming from the pressure of our trusted neighbour, which now wants to make sure that our manufacturing sector goes back to the United States. Of course, that is not going to happen. If we want to increase the creation of jobs for young people, we have to address the elephant in the room, and that is the attack that Canada is under from our trusted neighbour. This is just a comment, not really a question.”
