Mr. Speaker, we cannot be any more transparent. In our last budget, we said that we are making changes to the National Research Council to transform it into an industry- and market-focused organization that stimulates economic activity. It is as simple as that.
Speaking of transparency, how can the NDP explain voting against all of the new funding measures? We have invested $8 billion in new money in science and technology since 2007, and the NDP always voted against that funding. They should be transparent and explain their about-face to Canadian voters.
