“The member is wrong to criticize our plan. We talked to experts around the world, and they agree this fund will help Canadians build wealth.”
“Mr. Chair, I have enormous respect for my colleague, but I think it is irresponsible of her to speak in these terms about something that will create wealth for Canadians. We have consulted widely with funds around the world about best practices, and her view is very much outside of what we have heard from all commentators internationally who speak about Canada creating its fund. They know this is something that is going to serve Canadians well.”
