Jason Groleau, Beauce
“The Prime Minister promised to stop American tariffs, but they have doubled instead. A furniture factory in my region is closing, and 126 people are losing their jobs because of these tariffs. The government has not negotiated with the United States in seven months. I want the Prime Minister to solve this tariff problem before more people lose their jobs.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberal Prime Minister was elected on a promise to resolve U.S. tariffs. A year later, nothing has been resolved. Worse yet, tariffs have doubled. Yesterday, we learned that Meubles South Shore in Sainte‑Croix is shutting down operations after 86 years in business. This closure represents the loss of 126 jobs, primarily due to the unjustified tariffs imposed by the Untied States. In Beauce, our economy is connected to the United States. This connection is an asset that makes our region one of Quebec’s and Canada’s economic engines. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister describes our relationship with the United States, our largest trading partner, as a weakness. Last week, in parliamentary committee, we learned that the Liberal government has held no negotiations with the United States in the past seven months. Beauce residents and businesses are demanding that the U.S. tariff issue be settled before more jobs are lost.”
