Mr. Speaker, the stimulus of $3 billion and the moving up of the expenditure of that money from the June date to the April date is exactly in response to demands from the opposition that money move quickly. Nothing has been done in any way in terms of diminishing the oversight of how money will be spent and the projects determined.
This will be an appropriate way of ensuring that Canadians see the effects of our budget on a timely basis as requested by the opposition.
