Greg McLean Conservative
“The government is spending an extra $3 billion on climate projects around the world while running a large deficit. Does the member really think Canadians can afford this?”
“Mr. Speaker, one thing the member missed in his speech that I think needs to be brought here very clearly, and I know the member will be able to address this, is the extra $3 billion put forward by this government, in a horrendously overstretched deficit, for international climate initiatives around the world. Does the member really think that Canadians can afford an extra $3 billion, and what does this signal as far as the government’s commitment to actually get things done properly with Canadian taxpayers’ money?”
