We again find ourselves in a tricky situation because the Access to Information Act has still not been modernized.
Do you not think that the case featured in the Globe and Mail today should spur the minister into getting his famous draft bill ready and bringing it to committee as quickly as possible, as we asked him to do?
Furthermore, I would like to take a moment to refresh everybody's memory, although not yours, as it is excellent. We asked him to table an updated and stronger Access to Information Act by December 16, 2006, not 2007. As you can see, the minister is very behind with his homework.
Would you not agree that the case featured in today's newspapers is a further sign of the pressing need for the minister to draft a new act.
