“The Prime Minister promised to buy Canadian goods, but government spending on American companies went up 50% to $7.8 billion. Why did he break his promise while Canadian workers are losing their jobs?”

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister made a big show about promising to buy and build Canadian, yet an analysis by the Toronto Star demonstrated that since he made that promise, government purchases from American companies have increased and the share of money destined for American companies has increased by 50% to $7.8 billion. Why does the Prime Minister say one thing, do the opposite and force workers who lost their jobs to send their cheques to the United States?”

“The Prime Minister promised to buy Canadian goods, but he broke that promise. Spending on American companies went up by 50 percent to 7.8 billion dollars. Why is he sending more Canadian tax dollars to the United States?”

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister made a big show of promising to buy and build Canadian, but it was all talk and no results. Today, an analysis by the Toronto Star demonstrated that he increased the amount destined for American companies to $7.8 billion. The share of the money for government contracts that goes to the U.S. is up 50%. Why did the Prime Minister put on a big show of theatrics with elbows up, break his promise and force Canadian workers to send more of their tax dollars south?”

“The Prime Minister promised to buy more goods from Canada. Instead, he spends more of our tax dollars on American companies while Canadian workers lose their jobs. Why is he sending our money to the United States?”

“Mr. Speaker, after announcements and promises, today we found the results. The Prime Minister promised, just like he is promising today, that he would repatriate production and Canadian purchases to this country. Instead, he has actually increased the dollar value and the share of federal government purchases that go to the United States of America. While Canadians are out of a job because tariffs have prevented them from working, the Prime Minister forces them to send their tax dollars to the same American companies we are competing with. Why is the Prime Minister sending our money south?”
