Minister, I appreciate the fact that you are suggesting there are other places you'd like to look at spending this money, but 26 days from now you will have before you a government that will begin a $33 million expenditure on a daily basis, and you can't provide this committee, nor apparently can any of your ministers, any list of priorities.
May I ask you how, in any way, shape, or form, you intend to spend $3 billion? What is its purpose, and how can you assure Canadians that you will meet the test of your own party and your own statements in the House of Commons and prove that you're serious about transparency and accountability?
