Mr. Speaker, other countries are doing something about these fat cat bonuses and the Canadian government simply will do nothing about it.
We have the Prime Minister essentially endorsing here today $17 million of the money of Canadians going into the pockets of executives who just lost $24 billion. How can that make any sense whatsoever? This is on top of a huge deficit that has not produced any results in the economic recovery yet that could possibly be measurable or satisfactory to Canadians.
Will the government take responsibility for anything or is it just washing its hands and walking away?
