What we got, Madam Speaker, is very little money invested in infrastructure, because two-thirds of it will be invested in 10 years. With $30 billion or $35 billion, what did we get?
Over the past year, we lost 30,000 full-time jobs across the country, 50,000 manufacturing jobs were lost, and, just last month, young people lost 40,000 full-time jobs.
I would say that the government needs to do some soul-searching and find out whether the investments so far have really been growing the economy.
