You know, folks, it's pretty simple. When government cuts these massive deals with big corporations, the least they can do is be honest with the people footing the $15-billion bill. We need to see what's actually agreed to: no more hiding behind commercial confidentiality and cabinet confidence. There is no public defence for keeping those contracts secret, because at the end of the day, it's not the CEOs or politicians who worry about putting food on the table; it's the workers. It's the families who built these towns and who've been waiting for that plant to open.
Let me ask you this. Are you on the side of workers and taxpayers who are fighting to keep jobs here in Canada, or on the side of the corporations taking public money to build factories in the U.S.A.? That's my question.
