Mr. Speaker, the spouses of members of our Canadian military slain in the line of duty were told that they would get the first call on government jobs. They were told that by the Conservative government two years ago.
Yet, we see no action whatsoever. In fact, even Public Service Commission President Maria Barrados has said that she has been frustrated by the government's foot-dragging on this important idea.
Spouses are supposed to get on the public service's priority list within two years of their loved one being killed. Why has that not happened yet?
