Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister made a flashy announcement about promising to buy and build Canadian, yet we have learned this was all talk and no results. It was just a big political stunt. The Toronto Star confirms that since he made that promise, government purchases from American companies have actually increased by 50%, to nearly $8 billion. The Liberals are completely out of touch, and Canadians are rightfully shocked by this.
Why is the Prime Minister choosing to send billions of Canadian tax dollars to the United States in the middle of an unjust trade war?
