Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Windsor West for his speech. Windsor is being hit especially hard by the economic uncertainty we are currently facing. However, I would like to remind my colleague that the United States is the one causing that uncertainty. I am sure he is aware of that. The trade war started by our neighbours is affecting the Canadian economy, particularly in the Windsor area.
We are talking about the budget. Like several of his colleagues, the member mentioned that the deficit in the budget for this year is a record deficit, the largest deficit outside of a crisis.
Does my colleague not agree that we are currently in the midst of a crisis?
