Heath MacDonald Liberal
“We are putting a lot of money into farming and food processing, including in Leamington. Companies are opening and expanding there, and we will keep investing in Ontario.”
“Mr. Speaker, I have the utmost respect for my hon. colleague. We talk to each other quite often about processing in his area, mostly in and around Leamington, and there are going to be vast investments in Leamington. He knows that. There is Ideal Can, which is moving to Leamington, one of the only canning companies in the country using aluminum and steel from Canada. We are going to continue to invest in the processing sector and in agriculture. There are all kinds of companies. I am talking about Massilly North America’s $85-million new food packaging processor and Agropur’s plans to invest nearly $1 billion in plants in eastern Canada. We are going to continue to invest in Ontario.”
