“Canada's economy is growing slower than the rest of the world, and businesses are struggling. On Thursday, the Prime Minister must choose between more spending and letting Canadians keep their money. Will he keep his promise to lower Canada's debt?”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, the Bank of Canada forecasts that growth will be just 1% in Canada in 2026, compared to 3% globally. Half of this meagre growth comes from government spending. This shows just how much our businesses are struggling. Under the Liberals, the economy is idling, and it is workers who are paying the price. On Thursday, the Liberal Prime Minister will have a choice to make: keep spending, or leave more money in Canadians’ pockets. That same Liberal Prime Minister once promised to reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio. Will he keep his promise?
