Mr. Speaker, the government is still failing to stand up for Canadians.
The U.S. transportation secretary just levied the largest fine against Toyota for knowing about brake problems months in advance. It was $16 million for “putting consumers at risk” and failing to come clean about a pedal defect it has known about for months.
Here in Canada, we have learned that Toyota executives have secretly known about acceleration problems for at least five years.
When will the minister take action and stop the second-class treatment of Canadians?
