Mr. Speaker, I find it quite hypocritical when the Conservative Party talks about strengthening the borders and giving CBSA the tools and resources it needs to do its job. The Conservatives cut $390 million from the agency not too long ago.

Our government is investing $173 million into the CBSA and the Conservatives have been complaining about us spending that money.

Could the member for Scarborough—Rouge Park give his insight into how he feels about that, and does he agree with me?
