Mr. Speaker, Canada's latest GDP numbers show that the economy is not just slow, it is actually shrinking.
This Prime Minister has the worst economic growth record since the dirty 30s. Job creation figures for 2014 have been slashed by one-third. Now, with energy investments, exports, and jobs all down, the Bank of Canada says the situation is unambiguously negative.
Instead of spending $12 billion on a tax break for the wealthy, which is expensive and unfair, as Jim Flaherty said, will the government devote that funding to community infrastructure for new jobs and growth?
