MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT

Poilievre pushes for the government to reverse course on issues like taxation, forced labor imports, and deficit spending.
Oral Questions
“The economy is not doing well under the Prime Minister. Investment is down and the economy has shrunk. Real estate is expensive, household debt is high, and unemployment is almost the worst in the G7. I want the Prime Minister to come to the House and explain himself.”
“Inflation is bad. You caused inflation. Everything is your fault. You are a bad leader.”
Oral Questions
“You built less housing and grew spending. The most expensive homes in the G7 are your fault. Get out of home builders' way.”
“Politicians like me didn't build homes when I was in government. Tradespeople built them. Government should get out of the way and let them work. Housing costs doubled since I was minister. This Prime Minister failed to increase homebuilding like he promised. Canadians struggle to pay rent or a mortgage. The Prime Minister should explain his failure.”
“I want to look like I know more than you. Politicians can't fix this. Only people working can fix this.”
“The government's own numbers say construction dropped. The Prime Minister should stop posing for photos and instead find out why there will be less homebuilding.”
“Housing costs have doubled under the Liberal government. The Prime Minister appointed Vancouver's former mayor, who made that city's housing the most expensive in the world. The Prime Minister promised to double homebuilding, but construction has fallen 6% and is expected to drop another 18%. I want the Prime Minister to answer for his failures.”
“You caused high inflation and a recession. Building is down. Housing costs are up. You failed. I want you to admit it.”
Oral Questions
“The Prime Minister messed up the economy, and now he won't even defend his bad results to Canadians.”
“The economy is shrinking. You can't brag about growth while we're shrinking. Take responsibility for the consequences of your policies.”
“We're going to complain all summer about the economy. Everything bad is the government's fault.”
“I want to paint the Prime Minister as failing on basic pocketbook issues. I'm asking questions that contrast hisbig promises against ordinary people's lived reality to show he's out of touch.”
“You can't defend the rising cost of living or Canada's recession. Stop making empty promises. When will you make life more affordable and end this downturn?”
“The Prime Minister is missing because he doesn't want to answer my questions about the bad economy and all the extra spending he approved.”
“I want voters to blame the Prime Minister for their problems. Vote him out!”
Statements by Members
“I blame the Liberals for making Canada less safe. They let in too many people we can't trust. I want Canada to kick out dangerous foreigners and stop new ones from coming in. Only then can we be safe.”
Oral Questions
“I want to remove taxes I don't like. I'll criticize other countries to make my ideas look better. I say my ideas are positive solutions. I demand the Prime Minister stand up and agree with me.”
Oral Questions
“The Prime Minister caused a recession. He won't answer for it. Canadians are losing sleep over bills. He should take responsibility.”
“Canada's economy is shrinking and even the Bank of Canada admits it's weak. I want the Prime Minister to cancel the policies I think are causing this.”
“The economy shrank. Inflation is rising. The Bank of Canada called it weak nine times. People are losing jobs and homes. The Prime Minister should cancel the policies that caused this.”
