“The government created an infrastructure bank with $35 billion, but red tape has stopped it from spending that money. How can the minister claim this new fund will actually be able to spend its money?”
“Mr. Chair, we actually have an example. The Liberals established the Canada Infrastructure Bank. It was supposed to support infrastructure projects that are in the public interest, and it cannot even deploy the $35 billion it was given because of regulatory roadblocks that the government creates. How can the minister pretend that this fund will be able to deploy the funds it will be given?”
