Mr. Speaker, the west coast U.S. ports have accused the ports of Vancouver and Prince Rupert of receiving illegal subsidies under the WTO just because our governments in Canada have attempted to provide better roads and rail links to our ports.
Our government's right to invest in better rail and roads is fundamental to our ports and our economic progress. It is a question of our sovereignty.
What is the government doing to protect our sovereign right to make these nationally important investments in our ports?
