Mr. Speaker, the cost of living remains a major concern for many Canadians, and we are taking action. Yesterday, 12 million Canadians received a direct payment as part of the Canada groceries and essentials benefit. That amounts to about $1,900 for a family of four over the course of the year.

Mr. Speaker, the cost of living remains a major concern for many Canadians, and we are taking action. Yesterday, 12 million Canadians received a direct payment as part of the Canada groceries and essentials benefit. That amounts to about $1,900 for a family of four over the course of the year. That makes a difference. We are also laying the groundwork to get the economy back on track. Economic growth is on the rise, jobs are on the rise, foreign investment is on the rise, and wages are rising for Canadian workers across the country.
Mr. Speaker, that is interesting, because the Conservatives like to talk about affordability in the House. They even like to talk about projects of national significance.

Now my colleague is talking about the Liberal government's policies, the very policies that have led to the strongest economic growth in the G7 over the last quarter. Canada has also attracted the most foreign investment.
Mr. Speaker, my colleague is once again asking me about the concrete measures we have put in place. We have a plan to double housing construction here in Canada, and we are starting to see concrete results. We are creating jobs nearly three times faster than the United States.

Mr. Speaker, my colleague is once again asking me about the concrete measures we have put in place. We have a plan to double housing construction here in Canada, and we are starting to see concrete results. We are creating jobs nearly three times faster than the United States. Just last week, investors from around the world came to Toronto, and that is $500 billion of investment that we are going to bring back into this country.
Yes, Mr. Speaker, we are going to work on tax avoidance. That is a very important issue that the Prime Minister cares a lot about. My colleague is asking for real results. Canada has the strongest economic growth in the G7. We have created jobs three times faster than the United States, and we are l… Read full speechShow less
Yes, Mr. Speaker, we are going to work on tax avoidance. That is a very important issue that the Prime Minister cares a lot about. My colleague is asking for real results. Canada has the strongest economic growth in the G7. We have created jobs three times faster than the United States, and we are leading the G7 when it comes to foreign investment. Thanks to our summit, we have $500 billion on the table from investors.
