Oral questions on the economy centred on Conservative members asking the government to acknowledge that Canada is in a recession, saying it is the only G20 country in one, pointing to negative growth, declining productivity, government borrowing, and the cost of groceries, and criticizing spending on the Prime Minister’s travel. Liberal members replied by pointing to measures to help with living costs, including a groceries and essentials benefit reaching 12 million Canadians, and to investments in infrastructure, universities, transit, shipbuilding, aerospace contracts, mining, and a high-speed rail project, saying the Conservatives ignore these projects and vote against them.
