www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Friday, August 28, 2015 | 8 Liberal leader says he would double federal infrastructure investment continued from pg. 7 "We need greater investment in public transit. If we want our economy to grow, we need our cities to work. That means we need to build new transit infrastructure," said Trudeau. "We need to invest in social infrastructure, in things like affordable housing and child care. Our communities cannot grow without them. Those same communities cannot be expected to shoulder the costs alone and a responsible federal partner should never expect them to." The Liberal leader said investing in green/ sustainable infrastructure means investing in clean energy, but said it also means giving future generations the tools they need to adapt to climate change. "These investments have been put off for far too long. They are vital if we want to grow the economy, but we know it is about more than just that," said Trudeau. "It is about getting people to work on time and back home to their families at the end of a long day. It is about getting our products to market so our entrepreneurs can grow their companies and create jobs. It is about the places where our families live, work and play. It is about doing for our kids and grandkids what our parents and grandparents did for us." Trudeau said he would kick off job creation and economic growth by doubling the current federal infrastructure investment in each of the next two fiscal years. He said he would also increase the transparency of the New Building Canada Fund by providing clearer project criteria and faster approval processes that would prioritize investments in roads, bridges, transportation, ports and border gateways. Another promise involved helping fund public infrastructure projects with the creation of a new Canada Infrastructure Bank. Trudeau's words were well received by Oakville Mayor Rob Burton. "I appreciate that they chose Oakville to make this announcement because we in Oakville have been playing a leading role in trying to get municipal infrastructure issues on the national agenda," he said. "I also really appreciate seeing so much of the infrastructure agenda that we mayors all across Canada have been advocating for with all of the parties. I eagerly wait to see what the other parties will say on this." The plan would require the federal government to have a modest short-term deficit of less than $10 billion in each of the next two fiscal years. After that, the Liberals expect the deficit to decline with their investment plan returning Canada to a balanced budget in 2019. Trudeau lashed out at Conservative Party Leader Stephen Harper over his economic record and his position that Canada needs to "stay the course" to get through the current economic turmoil. New Democratic Party Leader Thomas Mulcair was also singled out for his economic policies. "We have to ask ourselves what is his (Harper's) way forward? It is austerity and cuts, and Tom Mulcair agrees with him," said Trudeau. "We believe the economy needs investment, jobs and growth." Spectators at the event included Burlington Liberal Candidate Karina Gould, Milton Liberal Candidate Azim Rizvee, former Oakville MP Bonnie Brown and Oakville MPP and Minister of Labour Kevin Flynn. During his visit, Trudeau also took the opportunity meet with IUOE staff members and their families and have his picture taken with supporters.
