Mr. Speaker, we just heard the minister say that it is small and medium size businesses and then we have the Prime Minister saying that they are huge. The minister is throwing taxpayer moneys at companies whether or not they need it.
Let us take the $80 million firm of RMH Corporation. It received $1.6 billion to set up shop in, guess where, the minister's riding even though, first, it did not qualify for a grant and, second, it admits it did not need the money in the first place.
Why did the minister hand out millions to foreign companies when they admit they did not need the money in the first place?
