As usual, Mr. Speaker, I could not agree more with my colleague. It is clear that with the economic headwinds we are experiencing and with the uncertainty that remains fairly prevalent in our economy, our government needs to step up and do what is necessary to diversify trade, to replace the demand that is not there right now from U.S. trade partners and to ensure that our industries can grow and thrive so that we can counteract the economic headwinds, the drag on the economy, that the trade friction with the United States has created.
This means that we have to invest in infrastructure to get more of our goods and products to foreign markets. It means that we need to have an industrial policy that encourages investment and remains attractive to global capital. It means that we have to buy Canadian and have a strong policy to ensure that Canadian workers can build using Canadian materials to build a stronger Canada.
