Mr. Speaker, another practical element is opening up new training facilities for our CBSA officers. Going directly to a matter that is very important in terms of this Parliament, the Conservatives voted against a supplementary budget of $26 million to our CBSA officers.
On top of that, the member for Carleton was part of a cabinet that cut $120 million from CBSA, laid off 1,100 officers and also reduced the capabilities for them to work with the FBI and other law enforcement agencies in the United States on their border patrols, directly resulting from the cuts.
Does the member for Carleton now wish to apologize for axing those workers and axing the officers who defend our border, which is now putting the situation of our trade in jeopardy with Donald J. Trump?
