Madam Speaker, somehow they have no problem interfering in provincial jurisdictions.
Why not help the Maritimes' forestry industry, since that has not happened in a few years? It has been luckier than Quebec, too.
Ottawa invested $75 million to fight the spruce budworm, but Quebec did not get a penny of that. It is a special federal fund to help Maritime barons like Irving protect their private forests at taxpayers' expense.
The government also invested $75 million in New Brunswick. Quebec got nothing even though more acreage on the North Shore alone, where I am from, is infested than in all of New Brunswick. I am not making that up.
When will Ottawa stop giving Quebec's forestry industry the short end of the stick?
