Finance
During Question Period on finance, the Conservatives said the government is spending too much, pointing to a projected deficit they said would be $7 billion larger than the Prime Minister had promised, and interest costs on the debt they put at about $6,000 for an average family of four. The government replied that the economy is performing well, citing 217,000 jobs created over the past year, the fastest growth in the G7 in the second quarter, the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7, and a rise in business investment, and invited the opposition to work with it on building the economy.Written by AI from the debate.
