Mr. Speaker, London and other cities in southern Ontario, especially those built on the manufacturing sector, have felt the pain in this global recession.
Our government is delivering economic development tailored to the needs of people, businesses and communities in southern Ontario. Our focus remains on rebuilding our economy.
This past Friday in London, our Conservative government announced the southern Ontario development program, which will help communities create an environment where business can thrive.
Could the minister of state advise communities in southern Ontario how this new program will make a difference at this critical time?
