Madam Speaker, my hon. colleague knows well that we have a smaller-than-projected deficit because we are managing the nation's fiscal capacity with responsibility. We have the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7. The member will know that we have the second-fastest growing economy in the G7.
The path ahead for Canada, despite the challenges we face, is bright. We are launching major projects and investing in the skilled trades to add 100,000 new workers to the economy. We are making massive investments in the Canadian Armed Forces in the defence industrial strategy, which is going to create jobs in every part of this country.
We need to invest in Canada and invest in Canadians to grow this economy.
