Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance, not the Minister of Industry.
This week the GM plant in Oshawa laid off another 900 workers, bringing the total up to 2,000 workers in just four months. The job losses are just down the street from the minister's office, but he does not bother to lift a finger to help. He is too busy giving his cronies untendered contracts.
Canadians deserve a minister who is responsive to their needs, not a minister who is missing in action. When will the minister at least act like he cares?
