Mr. Speaker, I am on page 129.
Essentially, what the government is going to do is borrow $25 billion. It is going to funnel that money into a corporation somewhere where there will be a lack of transparency, a corporation that will not be subject to parliamentary oversight.
We, the taxpayers, will be paying interest on that every year. We asked the government how this would be financed, and what kind of bonds would be used. We asked if the interest costs would be high and whether these were short-term or long-term bonds. The Liberals have no idea. They told us they lumped this in with all sorts of other matters and that they cannot really tell us.
If they want to sell a good idea, if they want to convince us that it is a good one, then maybe they should include the numbers somewhere. My impression is simply that the minister wanted to make an announcement and he is a little embarrassed by the structure of his proposal.
