Mr. Speaker, prior to elected life, I was in the retail business of selling alcohol, so far be it for me to diminish the great benefit of anybody buying alcohol for their business, but in this case, it is on the taxpayer dime. There is no entitlement like a foreign diplomat's entitlement to have a good time on the taxpayer dime around the country, while Canadians suffer and are unable to afford to heat, eat and house themselves.
As such, I appreciate that Oshawa is suffering, and Oshawa is suffering because we have a failed auto policy by this government as well, which does not seem to care about auto workers, union workers or, quite frankly, any jobs in this country, other than their own and funnelling $400 million to their own companies.
