Madam Speaker, earlier this week, I said it is always a good day for Brookfield. Yesterday was a great day for Brookfield as the Province of Alberta was pushed into a $16.5-billion deal on carbon capture. One of the companies looking forward to a windfall will, of course, be Brookfield.
Let us not forget that last week, the Prime Minister gave a $500-million contract to the European Space Agency which is housed on property 50% owned by Brookfield. Let us also not forget that three days after the Prime Minister had a meeting with President Trump, the President personally signed an agreement for $80 billion with Brookfield for nuclear energy. Just this week, the CEO of Brookfield testified at committee saying that when Brookfield does well, the Prime Minister does well because of how many shares he has in Brookfield.
The question that Canadians want an answer to is this: With 2.2 million Canadians going to a food bank every single month, why is the Prime Minister's focus enriching Brookfield and himself?
