Mr. Speaker, coming from a rural community myself in Nova Scotia, and given that the member for Dufferin—Caledon mentioned agriculture, I want him to rest assured that there are members on this side who are focused on those issues. I look forward to working collaboratively with him in the days ahead.
The crux of his speech was about infrastructure. I do not know if this member was paying attention for the last four years, but there have been historic investments on this side of the aisle in terms of investments in Canada.
Four times the amount of infrastructure projects have been approved in the last four years alone, versus the Harper government from 2011 to 2015. We have doubled the gas tax infrastructure. I assume his municipality would be a part of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities; we have put more money into that.
While the member may suggest that we are not investing, I ask him to look at the investments we have made in the last four years, investments that he and his opposition voted against.
