Mr. Speaker, I cannot believe what I just heard from the finance minister. Oh, sorry, he turned the job down.
The Prime Minister is out of control. The resignation letter from his former right-hand woman and finance minister is scathing in its review of Mark Carney's economic statement. She said, “[We need to keep] our fiscal powder dry today, so we have the reserves we may need for a coming tariff war. That means eschewing costly political gimmicks...which make Canadians doubt that we recognize the gravity of the moment.” She said, “Canada will win if we are strong, smart, and united.” This is serious.
We need to let Canadians decide who can best unite the country. They can choose between a Prime Minister who has lost control and a strong Conservative leader who puts Canada first.
