“We are investing money in job training in Quebec. It will create 51,000 jobs, mainly for young people, to help build a high-speed train.”

“Mr. Speaker, I will continue along the same lines. My colleague, the Minister of Jobs and Families, just spoke about the workforce training program. We will obviously invest the same amount of money on a pro rata basis in Quebec. That means 51,000 jobs, mainly for young people, people in the fields of engineering and construction, and all kinds of people who will help us achieve this great ambition of building a high-speed train in Canada. It is called Alto, and it will be built with our young people. It will truly give them hope.”

“Young people want good jobs. Our government is creating jobs through big building projects, and we are training up to 100,000 workers to help young people succeed.”

“Mr. Speaker, I am not exactly young anymore, but with all due respect, I am closer to being young than my colleague. What young people are telling me is that they want good jobs and opportunities for the future. That is what we are doing with an economy that is the second strongest in the G7 and with job creation through major projects, such as the Port of Montreal’s Contrecoeur expansion, the high-speed rail project that my colleague mentioned earlier, the container terminal project at the Port of Québec and the Nouveau Monde Graphite project. We are supporting those major projects through a workforce training program. Between 80,000 and 100,000 training spots will be offered to ensure that young people have good opportunities to build Canada.”

“The budget officer confirmed that we are on track to lower the deficit and our spending is sustainable. We are supporting youth and industry to build the country. The Conservatives should stop complaining and help us.”

“Mr. Speaker, in fact, my colleague has a selective memory because the PBO actually confirmed that the government is on track to reduce the deficit. The PBO addressed the current fiscal policy as “sustainable” under the IMF framework. We are building this country at a speed and scale not seen in a generation. We are supporting our young people. We are supporting our industry. The Conservatives should just stop complaining and build Canada strong with us.”

“The opposition is misleading people about the economy. Our recent economic update and the parliamentary budget officer both show that Canada's economy is doing better than expected.”

“Mr. Speaker, despite that party’s best efforts to mislead Canadians about the economy, the spring economic update indicated that our economy is strong. He talked about the PBO. Let us listen to the PBO: “The Canadian economy continues to demonstrate resilience, with most indicators better than anticipated in Budget 2025.” Canadians have no time to listen to a leader who has never worked a day outside of this House. They have tuned him out. Let us build Canada strong.”
