Dominic LeBlanc

Replying to Jason Groleau (Conservative)
“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister promised a great deal with the United States, but there are no results. It is a total failure. Last week, the Prime Minister said that he could wait two or two and a half years before negotiating with the Americans. However, a few days ago, before calling the by-elections, who did he call? He called Donald Trump to negotiate. What a coincidence. It is déjà vu all over again. Is the Prime Minister negotiating to save jobs, or is he doing it to give the Liberals an advantage in the upcoming by-elections?”

Mr. Speaker, once again, we see the Conservatives’ completely understandable anxiety about the by-elections. However, they are trying to create a link that does not exist. On the one hand, they want us to engage with our American counterparts and negotiate an agreement. On the other hand, they do not want us to talk to them. On the one hand, they want us to support Canadian workers, but on the other hand, they say we are spending too much as we stand up for the interests of Canadians and our industries. We know what we need to do, and we are going to do it well.
