Mr. Speaker, all this production cap will do is make other countries richer while making Canadians poorer. That is something the Prime Minister is so good at.
Members can consider this: GDP per capita in Canada is down. In the U.S., it is up. Nine years ago, average wages in the U.S. and Canada were almost identical. Now, an American worker brings home $22,000 more than their Canadian counterpart. As well, half a trillion dollars in investments has fled Canada to the United States, creating bigger paycheques for American workers. All of this is because of the Prime Minister's high taxes and massive deficits.
The Prime Minister is the number one job creator in the United States. Instead of helping the U.S. economy, why does he not fight for Canada for once?
