Mr. Speaker, all the hyperventilating in the world will not change the fact that the Prime Minister casually bragged in the Oval Office today that a half-trillion Canadian investment dollars had left for the States in the last five years and then promised that a trillion more will leave in the next five years.
That will mean mines closing in Quebec and opening in Pennsylvania. It will mean mills closing in B.C. and opening in Washington state, and factories closing in Ontario and going to Michigan.
Why is it that the Prime Minister sells out Canadian workers, Canadian jobs and Canadian investments when in the White House?
