Madam Speaker, it is funny to hear the parliamentary secretary say “only $15 billion”.
In their omnibus budget bill, the Liberals are creating the infrastructure bank and today we learn who is pulling the strings of this huge taxpayer trap.
BlackRock is the biggest investor in the world. BlackRock helped the Liberal government create the infrastructure bank. BlackRock assisted the Liberal government with its public relations. BlackRock will be a client of the infrastructure bank and will make huge profits from it.
Is the bank being established for the sake of our communities or for the people with club privilege? Who is running this government, BlackRock?
