Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Industry.
This government continues to break major promises by approving an $87 million interest free loan to Bombardier. In this very House the Minister of Industry said: "We talked about cutting subsidies to business. That is what we stand for".
He also said: "We are not prepared to grant massive assistance to any company". Why, then, did the Minister of Industry cave in to corporate welfare interests rather than keep the government's promise to Canadians?
