Canadians elected a new government to stand up for Canada and build a strong economy.

As Prime Minister, I’ve heard that message loud and clear. Today, I’ve shared my plan to set out on a new path for Canada — and act with focus and determination.

In Vancouver tonight, we laid flowers in memory of the victims of the devastating Lapu Lapu festival attack.

In this incredibly difficult moment, we will comfort the grieving, care for one another, and unite in common purpose.
