“The Conservative member from Alberta does not understand the fishery. He is twisting the facts about one project that bought crab processing equipment, not jobs. Our fisheries fund has supported over 1,300 projects in Atlantic Canada, and we just agreed to spend another $300 million there.”

Mr. Speaker, it is interesting that the Conservatives have a member from Alberta asking questions about the fisheries in Atlanta Canada. The member is trying to spin a single project from 2024 that was not even for employment. It was for crab processing equipment. I am sure the member has no idea how the fishery works, but the Atlantic fisheries fund has funded more than 1,300 projects in communities across Atlantic Canada, and our government just signed a new deal with Atlantic provinces for $300 million in new funding.
