Mr. Speaker, while Mexico is already at the negotiating table with the United States, Canada has not held serious negotiations for months now.
The Liberal Prime Minister likes to tout himself as a serious person, but Canadians are starting to see that there is nothing serious about his approach on trade with the U.S. First, he says our relationship with the U.S. is ruptured and then it is a mutual success. He twists into a pretzel and says our historical ties with the U.S. have been a vulnerability, but now we are “stronger together” with the U.S.
Behind all of the illusions and Liberal rhetoric, the reality is that 2.6 million Canadian jobs depend on resolving these tariffs. That means millions of paycheques, mortgages and rent payments and millions of families putting food on the table.
Why do you think the Liberal Prime Minister has allowed Canada to be sidelined and allowed Canadians to fall further behind while other countries move ahead?
