Vince Gasparro at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you, Chair.

Thank you all for being here.

We recently announced our first buy Canadian project with the acquisition of 55 new subway trains for Toronto's line 2 subway. The project has over 55% Canadian content. It will fund more than 900 direct jobs and 1,700 indirect jobs across our country.

Can you speak to how the buy Canadian policy helped enable this purchase and how Treasury Board is working to replicate similar successes across other major projects?
