Mr. Speaker, workers and families in southwestern Ontario still remember the Ford plant in St. Thomas, Ontario, being shuttered in 2011. It put thousands out of work, and it left the region's once thriving auto sector on life support. These types of closures were just all too common under the Harper Conservatives, which is one reason why this week's historic announcement with Volkswagen has come to them as such welcome news. Of course, not everyone in this chamber welcomed this historic investment. While Conservatives may choose to attack the deal, could the Prime Minister update the House on what it means for our communities, our economy and our environment?
