Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government loves to go on and on about its lofty principles, but its actions say quite the opposite.
Consider the example of transparency. The governments boasts about being transparent, but meanwhile it is eliminating transparency rules for first nations and labour unions. We are not the only ones saying so. The parliamentary budget officer said that he is, and I quote, “unable to provide completed tables due to the lack of information provided in Budget 2016.”
Why is the government hiding information from Canadians? Why this lack of transparency?
