Mr. Speaker, thousands of men and women depend on Newfoundland and Labrador's offshore industry to provide for their families, but the government's announcement on Friday left them behind once again. After suffering six months of job losses, this is the latest in a growing list of failed government approaches to the oil and gas industry, with no specifics, no timelines and none of the supports that industry has been asking for.
When is the government going to arrive at a plan that actually provides the assurances workers in the oil and gas industry need that their jobs will survive this downturn?
