Mr. Speaker, incompetence also costs money.
The Conservatives say that the Olympics was a smaller event than the summits. That is just laughable. There were over one million tourists in Vancouver for the Olympics. Clearly, they were using the summits as political plums for the ShamWow minister until they realized they had made a big mistake and had to move the G20 to Toronto. That big mistake is costing Canadians $1 billion to date. It is simply obscene.
Will the government admit that its partisanship and sheer incompetence are responsible for this billion dollar boondoggle?
