Mr. Speaker, the member will get no argument from me on that. Unfortunately, we lost our assembly plant in Oshawa. It had some of the best quality vehicles manufactured in the world, but we still lost it.
I would ask the member this. What is the government's plan? What is its strategy? We have the automotive action plan. I know, Mr. Speaker, you even had input in putting that through. However, the member does not seem to realize that in November, there were 27,500 manufacturing job losses. I was talking to him about the 2,500 job losses in Oshawa. There were 1,500 at Chrysler and 450 at Ford. Now we have this new NAFTA.
The parliamentary secretary is here so I was wondering this. The government would not have signed an agreement without a cost-benefit analysis. What is this new NAFTA deal going to do to increase the cost of cars for Canadians and affect the competitiveness of Canadians? How many jobs are going to be brought to Canada because of the new agreement?
