The Economy
Question period focused on the economy and affordability. Conservatives cited a National Payroll Institute survey saying most working Canadians spend their entire paycheque, with many living paycheque to paycheque, and pressed the government to adopt the Conservative economic plan, including spending cuts they say would save families nearly $10,000 and removing federal gas taxes until Canada Day. Liberals responded by pointing to their cost-of-living measures, such as tax cuts for 22 million Canadians, the gas tax pause, the groceries and essentials benefit, child care and dental care, saying Conservatives voted against these programs, and highlighted record investment levels, a $500-billion investment summit commitment, trade diversification including a new deal with the UAE, and the building Canada strong bill to speed up major projects.Written by AI from the debate.
