Mr. Speaker, the budget for the building Canada fund was $1.6 billion in 2014. In 2015 it is $210 million. That is an 87% cut. The fund will pay out a total of $14 billion from 2014 to 2023, but $10.2 billion of that money, 73%, will not be available before 2019.
We have an 87% cut this year and three-quarters of the funding will not be available until 2019, but we need investments and jobs now.
Will the government admit that it cannot deny these figures? These are the official figures.
