Mr. Speaker, greater economic growth is critical to lifting the fortunes of the middle class.
Since 2006, the government has had the worst growth record of any Canadian government in 80 years, a paltry 1.7%. Since Conservatives have come to power, job creation in Canada is less than half of what it was before they came to power. Wage growth is also down by nearly one third. The middle class is struggling just to get by, let alone get ahead.
Why is there no plan for growth, jobs, or fairness?
