Mr. Speaker, we saw today just how the Liberals are starting to spin this downturn in the economy and blame it on COVID-19, when in fact we saw slow growth in advance of this. We saw the blockades have significant impact on our supply chain.

I am wondering if the hon. member buys into the Liberal spin that somehow COVID-19 is the cause of all that ails us today.
