Mr. Speaker, these guys are so out of touch, they just do not give a rip about what Canadians are actually going through. Prime Minister Last fall, thetold young Canadians they would have to “make sacrifices”. Well, he sure did mean it, did he not? New numbers show youth unemployment is at 14.3%. Young Canadians now face the toughest job market on record and struggle to afford rent, groceries [more]

Mr. Speaker, Canada's new job numbers are out. They are devastating: 47,000 full-time jobs gone and unemployment at 7%. It is 4% in the U.S. For young Canadians, it is double the overall rate. The Liberals' trillion-dollar debt means higher costs of everything, lower standards of living and fewer opportunities for Canadians who want to start families, plan a future and put aside savings, but [more]

Madam Speaker, here is the Liberal record: spending up, food inflation up, debt up and photo ops way up, but investments down, no trade deal with the U.S., and zero Major Projects Office approvals. The Liberals landlocked Canada with costly red tape and shifting rules. That is why Canada now has the most unaffordable housing and the lowest investment in the G7. Canada is rich in natural and [more]

Madam Speaker, the Liberals' costly credit card budget plans a deficit of over $65 billion. That is more debt, more costs, more spending and more of the same. Prime Minister I would say that theis just like the last one, but he is twice as bad. He doubled Trudeau's deficit. The debt costs each Canadian $33,000 a year. Who can afford it? Debt interest charges alone are over $55 billion, more than [more]

Mr. Speaker, we entirely agree. The Liberals have created constant chaos, uncertainty and confusion with fund after fund that is not delivering any positive results in any way whatsoever. Life just keeps getting more and more expensive for everyday Canadians. I think all opposition parties need to unite in pushing the Liberals to tell them exactly what they are going to do. I think they are [more]

Mr. Speaker, like many Canadians, I remember a time when hard work paid off in Canada, when people could start a business or a family with hope for a bright and prosperous future, and when government did not stand in the way of businesses, pick winners and losers in industry and society, or tax Canadians, businesses and entrepreneurs at every turn. That was just over a decade ago, under the last [more]

Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for all his advocacy for energy development and for making life more affordable for every single Canadian in every part of the country. Of course he is exactly right. The Major Projects Office is just the latest example of big promises and great rhetoric of the government's trying to pretend it is new compared to the exact same one that it was, which had driven [more]

Mr. Speaker, let me give the member some advice right off the top. I think she should actually engage in the policy discussion here instead of impugning the motives of duly and equally elected people who represent hundreds of thousands of Canadians and care about our country exactly as much as, and maybe more than, every single other person, which is why we are fighting so hard to save it.
