Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll ask one question and then I'll share my time with Madame O'Rourke.
Minister, I remember back in 2009 watching the news nervously. As everybody remembers, the Harper government gave $14 billion of taxpayer money as a support to GM and Chrysler. There were 4,000 jobs lost at GM in both facilities in Oshawa and Windsor, 2,000 to 3,000 jobs in Chrysler and many other thousands of jobs in the supply chain. When the Harper government bailed out GM and Chrysler with no strings attached and no job guarantees, it ultimately led to plant closures as well, both in Oshawa and Windsor.
Speaking of those, what lessons did the government learn when we were negotiating these contracts?
