Finance committee  I want to make it clear this is not a slight against the Governor General, who's a fine fellow. It's just a question of understanding the methodology. On a question to CRA related to the issue of shelters for taxation, have you ever informed the government of examples of money

Finance committee  Our minister has been pretty clear in the House and has communicated that message. I trust she will continue to do so.

Finance committee  I was tempted to do a point of order, but I thought I'd be respectful and do it through you, Mr. Chair. We are here to allow a full discussion on the bill. The officials have been clear. They are not here to answer political questions. Ms. Nash's questions were completely out

Northern Development   of the Northwest Territories made it clear they do not want federal control over borrowing. Instead of listening to the people in the north, the government wants to increase control by changing the northern constitutions without publicly consulting northerners. Why will the government

Aerospace Industry  Mr. Speaker, let us be clear. RADARSAT has existed for quite some time. Considerable funding for that program was included in budget 2010, but the NDP voted against that. If it were left up to them, there would be no RADARSAT. We have said that we are committed to this project

Employment Insurance  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister is absolutely wrong and is refusing to acknowledge what is really going on. The Conservatives have made it clear to unemployed workers that their rights will no longer be protected by laws passed by Parliament, but by regulations approved
