Trump's 50% tariffs on steel and
0:02
aluminum are wrong and an unjustified
0:05
attack on our Canadian economy. This
0:07
means that manufacturers in Middle Sex
0:08
London are cutting shifts, delaying
0:10
investment, and relocating to the US.
0:12
These tariffs are a direct threat to
0:14
Canadian jobs and our economic
0:16
sovereignty. He promised Canadians he
0:18
would defend us. He said he had a plan.
0:21
But in responding to the US, this prime
0:23
minister's elbows have gone limp. So I
0:25
asked the prime minister, "Was the
0:27
entire Liberal campaign just theater?"
0:29
Yeah,

0:34
the honorable minister of finance.
0:36
Speaker, I would agree with the
0:37
colleague. It's wrong. It's very wrong.
0:39
And that's why, Mr. Speaker, we had one
0:41
of our colleague in Washington yesterday
0:44
to fight for Canadians, to fight for our
0:46
workers, to fight for industry. This is
0:48
not theater. This is action. Mr. Mr.
0:50
Speaker, on this side of the house, we
0:52
know what makes a difference is to fight
0:54
to protect our worker, to protect our
0:56
industry, and to build this Canada with
0:57
Canadian steel, Canadian aluminum,
1:00
Canadian workers. Mr. Speaker, we're
1:02
going to build Canada strong together.
1:04
The honorable member for Middle Sex
1:06
London.
1:07
Speaker, Canadians don't need more photo
1:09
ops. They need somebody to fight for
1:11
them and actually get results. During
1:13
the campaign, Trump actually endorsed
1:15
the Liberal Prime Minister, and it's no
1:16
wonder why. The prime minister said his
1:19
government would collect 20 billion from
1:21
US tariffs. That was his big talking
1:23
point. But when the pressure came, he
1:25
went to his friend Trump and quietly
1:26
dropped all those tariffs, leaving our
1:28
steel and aluminum workers blindsided
1:31
and betrayed. So, Mr. Speaker, will the
1:33
Liberals listen to Parliament, be
1:35
transparent, and table a budget so that
1:37
Canadians can see how much, if anything,
1:39
was ever collected from the so-called
1:41
elbows up tariff?
1:45
The honorable minister of finance.
1:48
Mr. Speaker, instead of talking down
1:51
Canada, she should be elbow hog with us.
1:53
Mr. Speaker, this is about making sure
1:56
that as a chamber, this house should
1:59
stand united. Mr. Speaker, this is about
2:01
our nation. We're fighting a trade war.
2:04
Everyone in this house have a
2:05
responsibility to fight for Canadian
2:07
worker, fight for Canadian industry, to
2:09
build Canada strong. Mr. Speaker, we get
2:11
it on this side of the house. I hope on
2:13
the other side they get it because
2:14
Canadian get it at home.
