Finance
During question period on finance, Conservative members raised a poll finding that more than half of Quebeckers aged 50 and over worry about running out of money in retirement, citing seniors struggling with housing and grocery costs, and asked the Prime Minister to stop what they called overspending, higher taxes and rising debt. Liberal ministers replied that their government has measures that put purchasing power back in Canadians’ hands and create jobs, and said the Conservatives had previously opposed increases such as the 10% boost to the Guaranteed Income Supplement and a lower retirement age. One Liberal member invited other parties to work with the government on cost-of-living measures.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
