Mr. Speaker, the first time I ran for office in one of the country's biggest ridings, I stayed within the spending limits set out in the Canada Elections Act. However, the Conservatives are so used to not abiding by the Canada Elections Act that the hon. member for Labrador was rewarded with a ministerial appointment.
When will the Conservatives realize that they do not have the right to violate Elections Canada's rules, even if it is the first time a member is running for office?
