Steven MacKinnon, Minister of Transport and Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
“The Conservatives say they support small businesses and steel makers, but they oppose our high-speed train project. That project will help steel producers, connect Quebec's four biggest cities, and create thousands of jobs for small businesses.”
“Mr. Speaker, it is funny to be sitting here listening to the Conservatives talk about SMEs when they are against the high-speed rail project that will create thousands of jobs in SMEs across Quebec. It is funny to hear them talk about steel when we are planning a project that is incredibly promising for steel producers. It is mind-boggling to hear the Conservatives taking a stand against a transformative project that will improve mobility, connect the four biggest cities in Quebec and create thousands of jobs for our SMEs. It is quite ironic that they are standing up to talk about what our SMEs are experiencing.”
