Mr. Speaker, I would like my Conservative colleague to indicate whether he agrees with his colleague from Oshawa that the assistance to the automobile industry allowed the automobile parts industry in Quebec to survive.
In my riding, in Magog and in Cowansville, there were at least a dozen auto parts companies and they have all closed down.
There are omnibus bills that incorporate two or three things. This bill deals with home renovations, first homes, the IMF, Canada pensions and an agreement on litigation, a bit like Bill C-10, which was a real mishmash.
How can the hon. member think that the opposition could vote in favour of such legislation without constantly being criticized for it afterward? We do not want to vote for such a combination.
How does he think the opposition can live with such legislation? Once in a while it may be acceptable, but otherwise it is deadly.
