A House of Commons debate ostensibly about Canada's economy and possible recession devolved into the usual partisan bickering, with the Conservatives criticizing Liberal policies and the Liberals defending their record.

The politicians mostly avoided substantive discussion of economic issues, preferring instead to score points against each other.
