The policies that the shortsighted leader is proposing have not been in vogue since bell-bottoms and shag carpet. He is playing politics with Canada's economy by calling for a moratorium on foreign investment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"769694\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the <a data-HoCid=\"111555\" href=\"/politicians/jim-prentice/\" title=\"Jim Prentice\">Minister of Industry</a> share with the House what the government is doing on foreign investment/state-owned enterprises and what are the findings of a 10 year study done by Statistics Canada?</p>",
