Corey Hogan, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources
“Our economy is doing very well. We are creating jobs, wages are up, inflation is down, and we are making life more affordable. I want the opposition to work with us.”
“Mr. Speaker, we know that youth unemployment is uneven across the country. There will be 6,600 new youth jobs in Alberta, by the way, this year. Let us talk about the top line here. We have the second-fastest growth in the G7, the best fiscal position in the G7, 20 new trade and security deals, non-U.S. exports up 40%, highest foreign direct investment in the G7 and that is twice that of the next country, created more jobs than the U.S. last year, wages are growing, inflation is slowing, investments in affordable gas and affordable food, affordable child care and affordable dental care. There is much more to do, but it would be great if the opposition would get serious and join us.”
