Madam Speaker, my hon. colleague touched upon the theme of betrayal of public trust, and that is what it is. Those words really resonated with me: “betrayal of public trust”. That is what this green slush fund scandal is all about, a $400-million waste. The cost of living is up, food bank use is up, the carbon tax is up and housing taxes are up. In my community, one in seven residents is visiting Project Share, our food bank, and it now feeds 120 families a day.
Perhaps my colleague could touch upon why he thinks the government is so lax in wanting to provide those documents. Perhaps he can also tell us what that $400 million could provide to hard-working Canadians.
