Mr. Chair, the minister told us that in its throne speech last fall, the government committed to introducing a bill to regulate federal spending power. Nothing has been done about that yet.
Just now, my colleague asked him if he planned to introduce a bill by the end of the current session. In mid-May, the Minister of Labour, also a member of the Conservative government, said on the subject of a possible bill that nobody is expected to do the impossible. Does that mean that Conservative government ministers, including the Minister of Finance, all feel that it would not be possible to introduce such a bill?
