Mr. Speaker, seven months and no results from the government.
A recent CIBC report confirms that buy American is smothering Canadian growth. Canadian exports to the U.S. have plummeted 35% this year. Canadians cannot trust the Conservatives to protect Canadian jobs. Trade is clearly an area of federal responsibility, but the only leadership in Canada has come from provinces and municipalities.
Why have the Conservatives failed so miserably to protect Canadian jobs from American protectionism?
