François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Finance and National Revenue
“Canada's debt costs are at historic lows, well below what they were in the 1990s. We have the strongest finances in the G7, and we are using that strength to help Canadians.”
“Mr. Speaker, one would expect that after 20 years in this House, the Leader of the Opposition would read The Fiscal Monitor. If he took the time to read it, he would see that public debt charges are at 1.7%, one of the historical lows we have seen in Canada and well below the 6.5% in the 1990s. Canada has the strongest fiscal position in the G7. We are going to use that to build this country, help Canadians and defend our sovereignty. We are going to build Canada strong.”
