Mr. Speaker, of course the hon. member knows that under section 36 of the Investment Canada Act, the minister is not at liberty to go into further detail regarding that issue.
The member might not know that before the budget was voted on in this house, a member of his own party said “Every single important piece that people in the community were looking for is mentioned”. It was the NDP member for Hamilton Mountain who said that.
I would ask the hon. member why would he vote against a budget that contained every single important piece that people in the community were looking for?
