BC Ferries told the Government about their plans to buy boats from Beijing 6 weeks before the public. Chrystia Freeland and her Liberal Government did nothing to keep these valuable shipbuilding & steel jobs here in 🇨🇦! These Liberals say “Buy Canada” but it’s all an act:

Since this W5 exposé on baggage security gaps at Pearson, has anyone seen a statement from the CEO for Pearson or the Minister of Transport? Or are they operating by the theory that no one is really in charge, and thus it’s not up to them to take responsibility?

I met with victims of the suitcase swapping at Pearson Airport today. They were detained, in some cases arrested & now cannot travel without being flagged by security. I asked the Minister of Transport if he would apologize for their treatment. Here’s what happened next:

This report is a bombshell! There were potential jobs & economic benefits to BC- instead of offshoring them to China. Premier Eby & his NDP lied about the report & hid it. PM Carney knows the truth now. Will he cancel the $1 billion fed loan to build these ferries in China?

Why is the “Canada Strong” Carney Government celebrating today all the benefits of made in Canada shipbuilding- with all their 🇨🇦 steel & aluminium- while they write out a $1Billion worth of cheques for vessels made by a state owned shipyard in the People’s Republic of China?

Another day another boondoggle. $200 million from taxpayers for leasing a gravel pit that is a money pit. Sure Liberals say they are using this parking lot as a space port. The only thing being launched is taxpayer cheques into the bank accounts of connected Liberal insiders!

The Minister of Transport said she’s “dismayed that BC Ferries would select a Chinese state-owned shipyard to build new ferries”. Minister for the CIB said they didn’t know they were shipping jobs to China with a $1Billion loan. BC Ferries says they knew all along. Who’s lying?

Minister Freeland testifies on the Liberal Government’s $1 Billion loan to a Chinese shipyard. Liberal words-“I totally agree with you” on protecting Canadian steel, aluminium & shipbuilders. Liberal action- refuses to cancel the Liberal Government’s $1 Billion loan to a Chinese state-owned shipyard to build vessels for BC Ferries, undermining Canadian workers and industry. The Liberal playbook in action: Talk elbows up, but are nothing but elbows down, using your tax dollars to offshore Canadian jobs.

Bill C-5 is said to be about ‘national interest’ projects. Yet Liberals won’t show a list of projects, keep saying that 🇨🇦 is in a crisis, & hand individual Premiers a veto. Either it’s a crisis requiring national leadership or it’s not. They need to step up & be transparent:

Conservatives have proposed that the Transportation Committee conduct hearings into this BC Ferries mess. We need accountability: why is the Liberal Government financing 4 ferries from a State owned shipyard- offshoring steel, aluminium & shipbuilding to China, not in 🇨🇦!

Shipbuilding means jobs, training, pride—BC Building Trades knows it. So did BC Ferries and the BC Government. Seaspan’s report showed Canadian yards could build the ships. As Chek News reported below, “everyone knew.” But BC Ferries choose to go with a state owned shipyard in China, brought in the Carney Government Bank to send $1B offshore instead of supporting 🇨🇦 workers. They have not released this report and their internal response to it- in what appears to be a violation of the house committee order to produce documents. Who are they protecting?

There is only one person who is keeping Justin Trudeau in power. That person is NDP leader Jagmeet Singh.

My first act at the first meeting of Transport Committee was to demand that we as MPs take a stand for 🇨🇦 jobs in shipbuilding & steel and oppose the Province of BC’s decision to allow BC Ferries to offshore construction of four vessels to a Chinese state owned enterprise- watch:

She says one thing in a letter- effectively demanding no federal funding be diverted to support the acquisition of 4 vessels from a Chinese state owned shipyard, yet is silent on the $1Billion loan. Canadian workers, like those at BCFMWU deserve better than this:

The dishonesty & deception continues. The Minister said the CIB didn’t know it was funding ships from a state owned shipyard in China- false. He said he discussed options for cancelling it-false. That’s why Conservatives have pushed for documents so we can get to the truth!
