Mr. Speaker, the government opposes the creation of a single currency in North America by arguing that it would be difficult to switch overnight from a Canadian to a North American dollar. In spite of that possibility, the government adopts a do nothing approach.
Is it not irresponsible on the part of the government to not prepare Canada for a possible transition from a Canadian to a North American dollar, considering that central banks in Canada and in the United States have already begun looking at this possibility?
