The banks has invested $1.28 billion in the REM automated light rail network in Montreal and pledged up to $2 billion to expand GO Transit service between Toronto and Hamilton and up to $300 million to increase container handling capacity at the port of Montreal.
They already invested billions towards infrastructure, and we have no idea where it went?
Is this'trudeau bumbling ' to apeasethe voting public to devert attention of the public from thee previous tax $$$$$$ he previously squandered tax $$$$$.
Blah blah blah Everyone has had enough of this BS!
CTV must be too busy fact checking Trump to mention that this infrastructure bank has lost over 20,000 projects in the past 4 years..
This trudeau concoction has been an abysmal failure since being launched 3 years ago, a big talk do nothing lib talking point.
Time for a forensic audit of all liberal spending.
