I also like to know how he feels about the corporate welfare in the form of $42 million of taxpayersB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™ money being given to Nokia to develop new wireless technology, $12 million to Loblaws to purchased energy-efficient freezers, $10 million to subsidize inefficient industries in the steel sector, $1.2 billion in the next five years to the aerospace industry and the generous subsidies to Ukraine to purchase weapons.
