Mr. Speaker, I am hearing a bit of a refrain from the Conservative Party: Spend more, but my goodness there is an uncontrollable deficit. I find there is a contradiction in a lot of the speeches I heard today.
I caution against some of the fearmongering with regard to scaring away investors. The last I saw, three out of the four major ratings agencies still had Canada at a AAA standing. I believe it is only Fitch that has us at AA+. We are in a very good economic position in order to recover after the pandemic.
With respect to the member's eloquent remarks about the importance of the “she-cession” we are facing and supporting women entrepreneurs, I would like to ask point blank if she is willing to support us on spending additional money to support women entrepreneurs through, for example, the first-ever women entrepreneurship strategy, which we put in place as a government.
