Mr. Speaker, no one can understand the economy if they have never worked a day in it, like the Conservative leader. Maybe he should listen to actual economists in Canada, like BMO's chief economist, who said adding 88,000 jobs should silence the critics. What about RBC's Frances Donald, who said that it is the wrong diagnosis, “neither accurate nor helpful”. The head of C.D. Howe gave his thoughts on the economy. I could go on and on.
On this side of the House, we are going to build Canada strong. The Conservative leader can continue with empty parking lot press conferences, props and slogans.
