Mr. Speaker, it is important, but the Conservatives will not act now.
If we cannot go to Service Canada's 800 number, the government tells us to go online. Well, the government still has no plan to ensure broadband is available in rural communities. It lacks an open-government policy that would open all government spending to scrutiny by the public. Now it wants to stifle competition, restrict the openness of the Internet and have consumers pay more.
Does someone need to tweet the minister to tell him that he can reverse it right now?
