Madam Speaker, not a single member from Quebec rose to speak out against the sellout softwood lumber deal. Not a single Conservative rose to say that it was not in the best interests of Quebec or Canada to sign this sellout deal.
Now, there is $68 million in additional penalties. There will be $200 million more that taxpayers and the communities that depend on softwood lumber will have to pay to defend this sellout deal. It might cost another billion dollars, since another case is coming up.
Does the member regret supporting this sellout agreement, or is he prepared to spend another $200 million, $300 million or even another $1 billion to support a political deal that auctioned off our softwood lumber industry?
