Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre today targeted Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit to Mexico, saying that Carney has returned empty-handed. Poilievre said that the Prime Minister's visit was all about air-to-air talk and nothing but fake deals.

He said that our free trade with Mexico has been in place for three decades and Carney's visit has added nothing new to it except a photo shoot. Poilievre is also attacking the Prime Minister over the delay in the federal budget, saying that Carney calls himself a 'great economist' but never ask him why the budget was delayed so much or how big the deficit is.

The leader of the opposition wrote on Facebook:

Prime Minister Carney returns from Mexico with nothing other than another fake deal about “dialogues,” “elevating our partnerships,” “orient joint actions.” Committees will meet. Talks will be spoken. Pictures taken. We’ve had free trade with Mexico for 3 decades. Today’s visit adds nothing but photo ops.

Pierre Poilievre also shared a similar post on X:

PM Carney had said in early May that the budget would come in October, but now it is to be presented on November 4. Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne will present the first budget of his new government in the House of Commons.
