Mr. Speaker, I find the Liberal member's speech kind of rich.
Last week, the Liberals announced their so-called auto strategy. It had a $2.3-billion fund for some rebates for EVs that are purchased in Canada. While that sounds great, the problem is that most EVs purchased in Canada are made elsewhere, including in the United States, where many factories are relocating. Effectively, this rebate is now subsidizing U.S. and other auto manufacturers.
Why are the Liberals subsidizing foreign auto manufacturers to the tune of $2.3 billion when tens of thousands of auto workers are being laid off here in Canada? Will the Liberals support Canadian auto workers?
