Mr. Speaker, in the context of what my colleague was sharing with the House, I certainly agree with her. I do not disagree with tax cuts. I stand with the government that tax cuts are important, but they cannot be the only weapon that we use against this enemy of job loss and downturn in the economy. It is like trying to play a round of golf with only one club in one's bag.
Targeted investments in research and development are very worthy and important. Obviously that same view was not shared by the current government.
When we look at the recent announcement of the $17 million investment by the provincial government and the challenge that is being put forward by Ford, does my colleague believe that the current government is motivated to make that type of investment so that employees can have a brighter future in a sustainable industry and that something positive can come out of all this bad news in Ontario right now? What is her hope for the government to act on this?
