Mr. Speaker, today, our government released the sixth report on Canada's economic action plan. This detailed report highlighted our government's aggressive response to the worst global recession since World War II.
Our plan is working, with 98% of the funds committed and over 22,000 projects under way or completed.
Canada's economic action plan is revitalizing Canada's aging roads and bridges, such as the blue bridge in West Vancouver, while supporting job creation across the country.
Since July 2009, the plan itself has boosted our economy and has helped create 430,000 net new jobs.
Provincial, local and aboriginal leaders share the success with our federal government, together setting priorities and leading our country out of the recession.
However, the global economic recovery is still fragile. We are not out of the woods yet. We must stay on course. We must continue to implement the plan and we must lower the tax bill for Canadians. That is why we will stand up for taxpayers and against the tax and spend coalition's call for higher and higher taxes.
