Mr. Speaker, that is quite a non-answer.
The truth is that the Conservatives have made a mess of CIDA.
The minister is completely incompetent and does not know his file: funding has been cut; development assistance is now granted based on the interests of large corporations instead of the interests of the poor; and staff morale is at an all-time low. Now we are hearing that up to a third of CIDA's budget could disappear at the end of this fiscal year.
Can the minister tell us how much of the funds allocated to CIDA were not spent this year because of his incompetence?
