Mr. Speaker, the NDP is playing politics, while we are trying to get accountability and build a nation here. What can I say?
Now that this information has come to light, we are seeing that the program has doubled since 2012, when the NDP were the official opposition.
The fact that the Liberals did not jump as soon as the NDP spoke is not a good enough reason for letting the public down and for telling Canadians that we are not going to do it now because we are pouting. I hope that the NDP will support this particular committee, if they really meant it when they said that they wanted something to be done.
Let us get on with it. This is what we are doing. Neither of us is in government. We can and should get accountability and transparency.
