Madam Speaker, I always enjoy hearing my colleague speak, including during question period when he is not asking a question.
I want to address something the member said at the beginning of his speech. He talked about the middle class and how it was not being helped out. He said, “so much for strengthening the middle class”. However, we know the economy is thriving. We are the leading country in growth among the G7 countries. More is being invested in the middle class, as we can see. This party believes that when the middle class is doing well, the economy is doing well.
Given the fact that the economy is doing well, does the member not believe that creating a strong middle class makes a strong economy?
