“The Conservatives are wrong to say the Canada Infrastructure Bank does nothing. The bank has backed over 100 projects and over $40 billion in investment, creating real jobs. You cannot trust what the Conservatives say about it.”
“Madam Speaker, that is unfortunate, and a good example would be the Canada Infrastructure Bank. The Canada Infrastructure Bank is constantly criticized by the Conservative Party of Canada. Conservatives have always said that it has done nothing and that we should get rid of it, but anyone can look into that. They should not believe the briefings from the Conservative backroom, because the reality is that the Canada Infrastructure Bank has had over 100 projects. We are talking about over $40 billion. That is real jobs. That is real investment. It is not all government money. However, the Conservatives will try to give the impression that the bank has not done anything and we should get rid of it. At the end of the day, we cannot trust the Conservatives to have credible information often.”
