The Economy

In the member statements portion of the sitting, the topic of the economy was raised by a Conservative member, who said the government has not kept spending under control and that Canadians are facing higher costs, higher interest rates and increased food bank use, with a record deficit amid U.S. tariffs. He said Conservatives will use the upcoming budget to push for debt reduction, lower fuel taxes and removal of the clean fuel standard tax. This was the sole statement on the topic, so no other party’s position was recorded.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
