What a coincidence, Mr. Speaker. The federal government's targets are the same as those of the Century Initiative.
The Century Initiative's top priority is economic interests. Dominic Barton confirmed that they did not think about anything else. They did not think about the impact that tripling the population would have on the future of French. They also did not think about indigenous languages or the political weight of the first nations. They did not think about the housing shortage.
The Century Initiative's targets are based only on economic interests, but can the government at least prove that it considered other factors before using those same targets?
