The Economy

During Question Period on the economy, the Conservative leader repeatedly asked whether Canada is in a recession and said government spending and new programs had produced the weakest per-person growth in the G7, asking the Prime Minister to defend his record himself. Liberal ministers responded that Canada is in a trade war, and pointed to measures such as enhanced loans for the forestry sector, infrastructure and major projects built with Canadian materials, investment in the skilled trades, and support for farmers. Some time also went to announcements about funding for small craft harbours serving rural coastal and Indigenous communities.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
