The Economy
During question period on the economy, the Conservative leader asked repeatedly whether Canada is in a recession, citing two consecutive quarters of shrinking GDP, 112,000 jobs lost in three months, and food insecurity. The Prime Minister responded that the government is building a stronger, more resilient and independent economy, citing rising business investment, growing exports outside the United States, wage growth, and forecasts that Canada will have one of the strongest economies in the G7. Some of the exchange touched on the Prime Minister’s travel spending and the Conservatives’ claim he did not answer directly, and the Prime Minister also wished the opposition leader a happy birthday.Written by AI from the debate.
