Mr. Speaker, that is why people are now saying they are fed up with this government.
Ever since they were elected, the Conservatives have made lack of transparency and secrecy their trademark. Even cost projections have become state secrets. How much will the megaprisons cost? Their answer is that they cannot say. Worse yet, they keep using platitudes, telling us to wait and see, that it will not be much longer, to be patient and they will have an answer.
Are the Conservatives afraid to open their books and prove Kevin Page right because they are heading straight for a structural deficit?
