Mr. Speaker, what the Prime Minister just read means that Canada is better placed to do more, not to do less.
The fact is that the recovery plan was designed purely to win votes. The government has agreed to help the automotive industry and the oil companies, which are concentrated in Ontario and Albert respectively, but it is refusing to give loan guarantees to the forestry industry, which is concentrated in Quebec.
Will the Prime Minister change his approach and finally help the unemployed and the forestry industry, which desperately need help?
