The federal industry department has so far refused to disclose to a House of Commons committee how much money the Liberals have given to the European vehicle company Volkswagen for the development of a new battery plant to be built in Ontario.
The contracts were supposed to be presented by the April 17 meeting of the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology, according to Blacklock’s Reporter. During the meeting, B.C. Conservative MP Brad Vis expressed frustration with the government’s failure to provide details of federal subsidies provided to Volkswagen.
