I have a question regarding this relatively new obligation on the part of the government to present regular reports to Parliament as a condition of the Liberal Party support for the budget.

Will Finance Canada be preparing these reports? How is Finance Canada going to measure the implementation and the costs of this stimulus package? What is the yardstick you're going to use to live up to the commitment made by the government to the Liberal Party?
