“The Prime Minister made a bad deal with China. It only protected two types of seafood from high taxes, leaving other Canadian seafood workers at risk. I want him to meet these workers and explain his deal to them.”
“Mr. Speaker, after the Prime Minister took office, China announced a 25% tariff on Canadian seafood. A few months later, I was sitting right here listening to the Liberals brag about how they sold out the automotive industry, allowing thousands of Chinese spy cars onto our streets, to save the seafood industry, but that deal covered only two species. Other seafoods, including sea cucumber, are still at 25% tariffs. Will the Prime Minister go to the wharves and speak with the Canadians whose jobs are at risk to justify this fishy deal?”
