Mr. Speaker, “defend workers”? Last month, economist Trevor Tombe told the foreign affairs committee there is no evidence the Liberal countertariffs changed American behaviour, none. What they did was raise prices across the board and slash the income of Canadians earning under $30,000. Liberals are taxing our most vulnerable to punish Washington, and Washington could not be bothered. Beyond the
Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, thecalled this the greatest crisis since the Second World War. Then he said Trump is a transformational president. He said integration is subordination and then wanted more integration to “make America great again.” He decried a world of fortresses and then “fortress North America”. He said that we are “at war” and the U.S. wants to break us to own us. Now he has a
Mr. Speaker, we have lost over 100,000 jobs over the last two months. Canadians elected a negotiator. Instead, they got Beijing's new world order and, at Davos, a world in rupture, with concession after concession. We got a negotiation from weakness on terms he did not define, and then he walked away on terms he still hides. He was rebuffed by Britain over the defence bank and rebuffed by France
Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, theblames this economy on the president's tariffs, and then turns around and says that we can wait the president out for another two and a half years. Both cannot be true. These tariffs are either serious enough that he walked away from negotiations and left Canadians to absorb the costs, or mild enough to wait it out until 2029. He should tell that to the steelworker
Mr. Speaker, steelworkers are losing their jobs. Four in 10 manufacturers have moved production south or plan to. That will mean over 100,000 jobs lost in two months. Those workers cannot wait another two and a half years for a deal. Prime Minister Will thedeliver a better deal than he was looking at in August or should we be waiting for the next public opinion poll to find out what a good deal
Mr. Speaker, what is weak-kneed is concession after concession for over a year and a half, rather than building the strength of this country. Two straight months of zero growth and now the economy is shrinking. Parents are skipping meals so their kids can eat. We have another $733 billion of debt, with $6,000 per family just to pay the interest. Canadians did not elect a performer. They were
Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, homebuilding is down, food bank lineups are up, growth has flatlined, and thehas broken his own fiscal anchors, piling on more debt that our children will pay for. That is the record, so he plays a trump card. Last week, he told Politico he could wait two and a half more years without a trade deal. Then, moments after calling the by-elections, he changed his tune. He
Mr. Speaker, actor, author, domestic abuse survivor, human rights champion, men's mental health advocate, husband, father and a good and decent man, Sir Patrick Stewart died this past Wednesday at age 86. Enterprise Born in a Yorkshire mill town in 1940 to a home shadowed by his father's violence, he left school at age 15. A teacher put Shakespeare in his hand, and the boy never let it go. He
Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, thechose to borrow record amounts every year. Today, Canadians got the bill. The Bank of Canada has raised rates. A typical variable mortgage now costs $80 more a month, a line of credit costs $10 more and a car loan costs $5 more. That is more than $1,100 a year, on top of the $6,000 each family already pays toward interest on Liberal debt. Prime Minister Growth is
