Mr. Speaker, a year ago, the Prime Minister of Canada and the Premier of Quebec proudly announced record multi-billion dollar subsidies to Swedish company Northvolt.
More and more Quebeckers and Canadians are concerned as a result of announcements that the company is facing serious hardship,following the loss of more than 1,600 jobs, the financial liquidity crisis and the halting of expansion and development projects.
Can the Prime Minister tell us how much taxpayers' money is at stake? Does the federal government, unlike Quebec, have any guarantees protecting us in the event that the project in Quebec's Montérégie region does not see the light of day?
