Investment is needed to fuel our economy, but this budget appears to only offer sprinkles of cash. There is an added $200 million to manufacturing investment. This amount will be rolled out over five years, and that is just not a lot when it comes to the needs of the industry to both build and grow good-paying jobs. In our last round of talks with the Detroit Three automakers last fall, Unifor alone negotiated $1.6 billion in auto investments in Canada -- more than the entire Strategic Innovations Fund.
