Mr. Speaker, to put it mildly, the government is not being very clear. What is clear, however, is that government broke its key election promise on electoral reform. There is something else that we are concerned about, and that is the fact that political parties will not be able to spend the money given to them by Canadians as they see fit before the election campaign.
Will the minister assure Canadians that the ministers will follow exactly the same rules and will not spend any money before the election campaign?
