Mr. Speaker, that is very interesting. If the Conservatives had actually read the C.D. Howe Institute's report, they would find that it calls for better financial reporting from the government.
This undermining of oversight just gets worse. Conservatives are now asking MPs to review spending estimates, but the government has not released its departmental plans and priorities. In Conservative Ottawa, MPs are supposed to review spending before they even get to see the plan. No wonder the Conservatives are trying to get rid of the PBO.
The question is simple: when will the Conservatives abandon these underhanded attacks on financial oversight?
