Mr. Speaker, these programs help none of these people and these answers are an insult to the House of Commons and the Canadian people.
Canadians want action on this affair, not excuses. They want the mess at HRD to be cleaned up. They want these questionable files to be put out of the control of people in the department. They want ministers and those responsible removed from their positions and they want the suspension of these programs before more damage can be done.
When is the government going to stop protecting incompetent ministers and start protecting Canadian taxpayers?
