Government Orders

Spring Economic Update 2026 Implementation Act

“You say you want homes to be built. I've talked to people in the home building industry. They tell me too many fees and rules make it hard to build. It costs too much. Cut taxes and rules. Then more homes could be built. People could afford them.”

“You're changing the subject because you don't want to admit my government's carbon tax and red tape are making food more expensive. I want less government so farmers can feed us for less.”

“This bill does little to improve life for Canadians. It only gives temporary relief from high gas prices for a few months. After that, the high prices come back. It does not fix the real causes of high costs. It's just a distraction while the government avoids making hard choices. We need to permanently remove all federal taxes on fuel. That would give real savings to families, truckers, and farmers. But the government keeps spending and going into debt. This increases costs for everyone. High fuel costs and red tape are hurting family farms. The government should live within its means, like regular families do. We need to get rid of the carbon tax, cut waste, remove barriers to building homes, and develop our natural resources responsibly. This would create jobs and lower energy prices. The government should not keep spending recklessly. Canadians deserve to keep more of their own money. We need real economic growth and opportunities for everyone. This bill fails to deliver that.”
