The Economy
During oral questions on the economy, the Bloc Québécois raised job losses at two long-standing Quebec furniture manufacturers, saying U.S. tariffs had cost 300 jobs in four days and calling on the government to fund wage subsidies before layoffs happen rather than after. The Bloc also proposed paying for such help by ending oil and gas subsidies. Liberals replied that they are supporting Canadians through tax cuts, school food funding and worker training, asked the Bloc where they would cut spending instead, and said the job losses stem from U.S. tariffs and dumped Asian products, with investigations under way and actions to be announced soon.Written by AI from the debate.
