Michael Chong: “put a renewed focus on the single biggest issue facing Canadians, which is affordability.”

They have failed to introduce competition reform in a number of sectors of the Canadian economy that would help reduce the price of everything from groceries to gas to housing.

I was delighted with the challenge, so I'm looking forward to taking on this new role.

I think the trajectory of the current government is no different than the previous Liberal government and that's why Canadians continue to struggle with affordability.

one month of anemic growth, of half a per cent, does not change the overall picture.
