“Thats why coming back every week for questions and work on passing new legislation is reasonable and acceptable to most parties.”

Trudeau started his address Sunday by expressing condolences to residents in Portapique Nova Scotia where a suspect was arrested after a shooting, calling it a ‘terrible situation.”

“Our hearts go out to everyone affected,” he said.

The PM also talked about seeing a trend in the right direction on the COVID-19 numbers.

“We need to keep doing what we’re doing. It is working. We must continue to stay home and be cautious.”

The government has tightened scrutiny of foreign takeovers of Canadian companies impacted by the COVID crisis.

“We recognize there are vulnerable businesses that are gong to be important to our recovery who are perhaps exposed to foreign purchases in a vulnerable time. We need to be careful that we’re taking care of it. We will be strengthening our oversight and paying close attention to foreign investment in this country to ensure there isn’t people taking advantage of this crisis,” said Trudeau.
