Joanne Thompson Liberal
“I want the member to support our bill. People in her riding and across Newfoundland and Labrador want our investments in harbours, wild salmon, Churchill Falls, and the Goose Bay military base. These give our province real results.”
“Mr. Speaker, off the top I will say to the member to support Bill C-38. I will remind her that I speak with residents in her riding and across Newfoundland and Labrador on a regular basis, and they support the $1 million for small craft harbours. They support the $81 million for wild Atlantic salmon, which is going to see real benefits in our province. They support Churchill Falls and what it is going to mean for our economy. They support 5 Wing Goose Bay and the millions of dollars that are going to move into that community and the province. These are tangible results. She needs to speak to more of her residents.”
