Warren Steinley Conservative
“This debt fund is not open or clear. We do not know who will run it or how they will make choices. The government should not pick winners and losers. Taxpayers will lose money.”
“Mr. Speaker, that is such a great point from my colleague from the Bloc. I did not get a chance to comment on that in my speech. We have no idea who is going to be the head of this debt fund. We have no idea who is going to be on the board and how those decisions are going to be made. There is such a lack of transparency. I would say to my hon. colleague that this is a case where the government is picking winners and losers once again and not letting the free market decide. That is where we get in trouble. That is why taxpayers are going to lose money.”
