Mr. Speaker, it is hard to imagine a government that could be more devoted to using taxpayer dollars for its own partisan purposes. Just look at the Prime Minister's riding. Look at the boondoggles from the Minister of Human Resources Development. Look at the hon. member for Ahuntsic.
Today let us look at the spending patterns at the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency. The Liberals spent an extra $100 million through that agency in the lead up to the last federal election. Apparently the Liberals were desperately trying to hang on to Atlantic seats for fear their defeated cabinet ministers might join the Canadian Alliance.
How does the Prime Minister justify using public money for partisan gain?
