Mr. Speaker, I always enjoy my hon. colleague's introduction of humour and folk stories, very often some with a Yiddish origin. The lesson of the parable of the older brother that he has just reminded us of is a very good analogy to what the President of the Treasury Board is trying to get away with by explaining that the government knows best. It will take money from the national treasury, again with the force of the majority, the tyranny of the majority, and then it will spend that money in ways that will never be fully accounted for.
