Mr. Speaker, while the Conservatives are happy to help the rich get richer, they completely abandon middle-class Canadians.
Four hundred thousand good manufacturing jobs have disappeared under the Conservatives, 4,100 in the city of Peterborough alone, yet they cannot seem to stir themselves to action. Last week we lost out on another 1,000 jobs because the government refused the investment needed to get another Ford assembly line in Windsor.
How many good manufacturing jobs do we have to lose before the Conservatives are going to do something about it?
