Mr. Speaker, we all know why he is a lame duck Prime Minister.
This is why it is important. The new Liberal leader has assumed the role of defence minister by promising funding for disaster relief. He acts like the intergovernmental affairs minister by setting up his own federal-provincial conferences. He is a de facto finance minister, announcing billions of dollars in new initiatives. Now he is calling his own caucus meetings because the regular ones are not democratic.
Why with so many ministerial roles apparently available to the new member is there so little accountability for his actions here in the House of Commons?
