With regard to Aveos, the sale was complete in 2007, but the jobs were not transferred until July 2011. Today, eight months later, everyone is out on the street.
Last year, I attended a meeting of the same parliamentary committee. All the same people may not have been there but I recognize a few who know what happened and who knew what was coming. Today, the members of the government will say that they no longer remember. They are sitting on the sidelines while people are out on the street without jobs. I am reiterating this a lot today because I want to speak to your emotions. The government is supposed to work for the people, for jobs, for Canadians. It must not work only for company shareholders.
