Mr. Speaker, the free trade agreement with Europe is a golden opportunity for the forestry sector.
This agreement will result in the immediate removal of European Union tariffs on forestry rights, which will make them more competitive and create conditions that promote job creation in this key industry.
Unfortunately, we know that the NDP position is identical to that of its provincial wing, Québec solidaire, and that it is opposed to this agreement.
Our Conservative government supports trade and job creation. The NDP bows down before the unions and the Liberals prefer the drug trade.
