Madam Speaker, my colleague from Etobicoke—Lakeshore is a champion for economic development in all its forms, and especially for clean and sustainable development. This is what the strategy does. It embraces the consumer choices that are emerging, the Canadian content of those vehicles that the hon. member referred to and also the multiplication that comes from an electric future, where the economy benefits not just in those auto-producing jurisdictions, not just in Cambridge, Woodstock and Oshawa, but across Canada.
That is what a strategy like this that embraces electrification means. It means more jobs in the Maritimes. It means more jobs in Quebec. It means more jobs in western Canada. It means more jobs in the north. It means those supply chains, software providers, electricity providers and innovators contributing to the economy that the hon. member referred to benefit, and it actually puts pressure on the Americans to respond in kind.
