Mr. Speaker, Canadians remember all too well how Stephen Harper had a tendency to capitulate to the Americans. In contrast, we stood up to protect supply management, to renegotiate NAFTA and to protect our aluminum and steel workers.
We will always protect Canadian workers, and we will invest in national security, something the Conservatives refused to do, since they reduced our defence investments to 1% of GDP. At the same time, the Conservative leader still refuses to get his security clearance and take national security seriously.
