Finance
During Members’ Statements, Conservative MP Mark Strahl spoke about federal finances, saying the government is continuing the borrowing and spending of previous years and has doubled the deficit. He said interest on the debt will cost $60 billion this year, about $3,400 per family, and argued this spending contributes to inflation, weak growth, and expensive housing. He called on the government to stop running deficits and manage money responsibly.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
