Business of Supply
The House debated an opposition motion on the state of the Canadian economy under Business of Supply. Conservative members argued the economy is weak, pointing to rising costs of living, regional unemployment, government borrowing and deficits, and called for lower taxes, less red tape and more competition. Liberal members pointed to recent job numbers showing employment growth and falling unemployment, listed government measures such as tax cuts, dental care and pharmacare, and argued Conservatives talk down the economy for political gain. Bloc Québécois members cited bank growth downgrades, deficit projections and GDP contraction to question both parties’ pictures of the economy. Some procedural exchanges occurred over references to members’ presence in the chamber and to people in the gallery.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
