“Foreign investment in Canada is at a 20-year high, and our exports are up both to the United States and the rest of the world. Where is the member getting his numbers?”
“I have two quick points, Mr. Speaker. The member gives the impression that it is an issue of foreign investment. Foreign investment today is at a 20-year high. I do not quite understand how he sees that as a decrease. On exports, we are at least 17% higher internationally, outside of the United States, but also exports to the United States are up from last year. Where is the member really drawing his numbers and conclusions from?”
