Mr. Speaker, wording the question differently could lead to a differently worded answer that I might have a chance to understand.
If the Prime Minister believes that the United States is no longer a reliable partner, is it normal for the government to follow through on a contract that the Prime Minister himself called to be studied and suspended, when the U.S. President goes so far as to say that a bridge paid for by Canada could be blocked because his mood happened to swing that way at the moment?
Is the government being inconsistent, or does it simply not mean what it says?
