In response to a question from Kelly DeRidder

“Our government is helping people with the cost of living. We made the school food program permanent, which can save a family up to $800. We are also funding child care, dental care, and child benefits to support Canadians during this trade dispute with the United States.”

“Mr. Speaker, Canadians are working hard and this government is working hard for Canadians. We have taken real action on affordability. This includes making the national school food program permanent, which represents savings of up to $800 for a family with children in school. We have made investments in child care and dental care and continue to invest in the Canada child benefit. We are there to support Canadians as they face affordability challenges and as we face this tariff war with the United States.”

In response to a question from Jason Groleau

“Our government lowered taxes for 22 million Canadians. We are also helping 12 million people pay for groceries. The member opposite voted against child benefits and dental care, even though tens of thousands of people in his own riding use those programs.”

“Mr. Speaker, I would like to point out that the first thing we did as a government was to lower taxes for 22 million Canadians. Help with groceries is also on the way for 12 million Canadians and will lower their weekly costs. I do not believe that my colleague supported the Canada child benefit, even though it is helping 11,400 families in his riding. Another 29,000 constituents of the Beauce community are also receiving dental care, a program that my colleague voted against.”

“Our spring economic plan invests $6 billion to train and hire up to 100,000 skilled trades workers across Canada. This will create jobs and help build our economy.”

“Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague from Les Pays-d’en-Haut for his question. Our spring economic update is about taking responsible action today while investing in the future for young people. We are investing $6 billion to recruit, train and hire up to 100,000 skilled trades workers across Canada. This includes thousands of jobs in Quebec, such as in Contrecoeur and the Matawinie region. We are building the strongest economy in the G7 with our domestic workforce.”

That includes Quebec. We are building major projects. We are building Canada strong across the country. We will continue to provide career opportunities for young people for the future.”

“We want to spend over $6 billion to train more than 100,000 young people in the skilled trades. These workers will build major projects across Canada. I want the opposition to support our plan.”

These new workers will help us build a strong Canada and deliver major projects across the country. We are investing in our young people and in our country, and I hope that the members opposite will support the plan that was presented yesterday.”

“We lowered the retirement age, while the Conservatives wanted to raise it. We are also helping 12 million Canadians pay for food and essentials.”

“Mr. Speaker, on this side of the House, as my colleague said, we lowered the retirement age. Those folks over there wanted to raise it to 65. We are there for seniors. We are there for all Canadians. We are also supporting them through the Canada groceries and essentials benefit, which will help 12 million Canadians who need it right now.”
