Opposition Motions
November 16, 2010 — Mr. LeBlanc (Beauséjour) — That, in the opinion of the House, the government's decision to purchase the F-35 stealth fighter jets without holding an open competition will cost Canadian taxpayers billions of dollars at a time of unprecedented deficits and will create fewer jobs in the Canadian aerospace industry than would be guaranteed through an open competition and therefore the House calls on the government to immediately cancel their plan to spend $16 billion through an untendered, uncompetitive process while there is still no penalty to do so and instead commit to holding an open competition to replace the CF-18s based on clear and publicly disclosed foreign and defence policy requirements.

November 16, 2010 — Ms. Sgro (York West) — That the House calls on the government to protect the over one million Canadians who depend on their employers for long-term disability benefits, in the manner described in Bill S-216, the Protection of Beneficiaries of Long Term Disability Benefits Plan Act, by ensuring that such long-term disability claimants are given preferred status in the event that their employer declares bankruptcy and further calls on the government to implement these changes before December 31, 2010 when the long-term disability benefits of hundreds of Nortel employees will expire.
