Mr. Speaker, I think my colleague puts this in a way that Canadians understand. Sometimes we talk about these big numbers. It is difficult to comprehend, but when we break these numbers down to things that Canadians really understand, they are disgusted by the level of scandal that is in here. I am not sure how many Blue Jays tickets we could have bought for that this year. He is right; this is hurting Canadians in the pocketbook when they are struggling every day with the basic necessities. This really hits home, when their tax dollars are being abused at this level.
