This was one those dramatic weeks in Ottawa, and it was a week that will affect the lives of each and every resident of the riding of Thunder Bay - Rainy River for years to come. I chose not to support the budget because it failed to properly address the forestry industry crisis, it did nothing to make Employment Insurance more accessible for workers that have and will lose their jobs during this crisis, and it did not adequately respond to the needs of our riding as expressed by you during our cross-riding consultations.
