Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister did not stand up. He backed down. He has been backing down for nine years, during which time three presidents have imposed illegal tariffs, which Conservatives had originally got taken off, and recently, Biden doubled those tariffs, causing 500 mill workers in British Columbia to lose their jobs. They must have been watching that show, seeing the Prime Minister say that their unemployment, and their now poverty, was a “small issue”.
Why does the Prime Minister think he is such a big shot that the jobs of working people are a small issue?
