“We are spending $750 million on sports. It is our largest investment in sports in 20 years, and it helps our youth and communities.”

“Mr. Speaker, I am always surprised to see how the opposition focuses on the negative when there is good news. Sports are the cornerstone of our nation. Thanks to the spring economic update, we are making a generational investment of $750 million. This is the largest investment in 20 years. The people of Thérèse-De Blainville and that MP’s constituents must be pleased to have this investment for their villages, towns, and communities. We are building Canada strong by working together and investing in our sports and in our youth.”

“We are borrowing money to support families, young people, and seniors. This spending is an investment to keep Canada strong in the future.”

“Mr. Speaker, supporting our families, supporting our young people and supporting our seniors is what we are doing. When we increase the deficit, it is not to spend for the sake of spending. We are making investments. The idea is to invest here, today, in our young people, our families, our seniors, but also to invest so that in 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, we will still be a strong nation. That is what it means to build Canada. That is what we are doing.”

“Canada has the best economy in the G7. We are facing high costs and trade issues, so we need to invest in Canadians right now. We must help young people get good jobs by funding major projects.”

“Mr. Speaker, I am not sure who is out of touch with reality. When we have the best economic position in the G7, when we are in the midst of a tariff crisis and when we are dealing with all the issues around affordability, now is the time to invest in Canadians. It is time to help our young people get good jobs in the future and implement major projects that they can work on.”
