Mr. Speaker, it is unbelievable. The Liberals' defence to overseeing the decimation of the Canadian auto industry is to have competing quotes.
I have a quote from the Unifor local in Oshawa, the people who actually make the vehicles, who said that it is a great plan.
Rather than talk about the plan or say the Liberals have a plan to get tariff-free access, the member tries to say there is a bad quote here. That is their defence to watching factories like Paccar close, in Brampton and in Ingersoll, with thousands of workers losing their jobs and exports down 55% since their leader took over as Prime Minister.
The member's defence is that we got a bad quote. It is pathetic, just like their strategy for the auto sector.
