Mr. Speaker, it seems that under the Conservative government's watch, ACOA has been throwing money away. It gave a million dollar loan to Ocean Choice International to process yellowtail flounder in Newfoundland and Labrador. At the same time, that company inked a deal to send the same fish to China for processing.
Why would ACOA approve a loan to a company that creates fish processing jobs in China? Why is it not funding those jobs here at home?
