“An Asian airline ordered 150 planes to be built by Airbus in Mirabel. This shows our plan is working to bring foreign investment to Canada.”
“Mr. Speaker, at last, a good question, and it comes from my colleague from Mont-Saint-Bruno—L’Acadie. Indeed, two weeks ago we received some very good news for the aerospace sector, particularly for Airbus in Mirabel. There are now 150 new aircraft under construction in Mirabel. This is an order placed by AirAsia, a Malaysian—and therefore Asian—airline, with Airbus, a European company. All of this proves that our plan is working. We are capable of attracting foreign investment.”
