Mr. Speaker, that is a ridiculous answer. Nortel just finished saying that it does not owe allegiance to Canada and that it is considering leaving the country. Nortel has 56,000 people who work outside Canada.
My question is for the minister who seems to think that high taxes are good for business in Canada. Why is he not getting the message? Why is he continuing to make lame excuses for his government? Why are they not getting down to business and cutting taxes to attract investment to Canada?
