Mr. Speaker, that is just pathetic. Those members are proud of government cuts.
First the Conservatives muzzle cabinet ministers, then they muzzle their own caucus, and now they are muzzling public servants. It gets worse, as my colleague mentioned. The Minister of Public Works, who cannot answer questions in the House of Commons, is not allowing government officials to answer questions in committee.
Has the reaction to the cuts by the President of the Treasury Board been so negative that he had to muzzle government officials?
