Mr. Speaker, the point is that the Charger, which has an electric component to it, was recognized as the car of the year in North America and is produced right here in Canada. That amplifies the point that our workers in Canada are, in fact, the best in the world.
All we are asking for is a level playing field. At least we have a government that recognizes that and wants to see that. It is one of the reasons we have the whole issue of the tariffs and of having countertariffs in place where they are needed in order to protect our industry and level the playing field. When I ask the question of my Conservative friends opposite, they seem to be of the opinion that what the government is doing is not supporting the industry. I would ultimately argue that is wrong.
We need to look at ways to support it directly. Look at the auto plan that was presented by the Prime Minister back in February and the amount of support it has received. It is significant support. It will make a difference. As opposed to trying to sidestep the question, members should recognize it for what it is and support it. If they have something of value they want to add to it, by all means, they should make that suggestion, but I do not believe the answer is to go back to the 1960s. Times have changed. Workers understand that. We need to do what we can, in every way we can, to support our auto industry in Canada.
