Mr. Speaker, section 8 of the public accounts details an endless list of payments made to interest groups, everything from $73,000 for fashion design to $54,000 for World Food Day Association.
The government has been in power for over a year but it has made no cuts to interest group funding. Thirteen months later, $50 billion deeper in debt, and the government still has not made any announcement.
Will the President of the Treasury Board please tell the House and all Canadians why we still have not had any cuts to interest group funding, and when will he act?
