Mr. Speaker, we just heard the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Justice tell the House that “a law is a law is a law”, and that all laws need to be followed in Canada.
We are hearing from many on-reserve first nations people who are disturbed that the government is not enforcing the law, the first nations accountability law that allows first nations people to know how their band is spending their money.
If a law is a law is a law, I would like to ask the parliamentary secretary, will they enforce the law that already exists to give first nations people access to the information on how their money is spent?
