Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Deputy Prime Minister.
Canadians have been constantly demanding that the government abolish the current MP pension plan which allows members to collect benefits after only six years of service.
The Prime Minister has stated that his government is reviewing this overly generous plan but that we have four or five years to deal with it.
We do not need a commission to tell us what needs to be done. We have already suggested changes that can be implemented immediately.
Will the Deputy Prime Minister commit to bringing the MPs' retirement compensation package in line with the private sector?
