Mr. Speaker, the member may not want to listen to members of Parliament as we talk about foreign investment and what people have to say. As the secretary of state likes to read out quotes, I will read a couple of quotes to the member and see his response. Here is one:
Allan Lanthier, a retired senior partner of Ernst & Young said “I've been practising tax for 35 years--this is the single most misguided proposal I've seen out of Ottawa in 35 years”.
Tom d'Aquino, CEO of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives said, “We are worried that the change...undermines the competitiveness of Canada's homegrown champions.”
That is how they feel. How does the member respond to leaders who deal in foreign investment?
