Madam Speaker, it is a little rich to hear Liberal colleagues in this chamber talk about accountability and transparency when they are presenting a budget implementation bill for a budget that was supposed to begin on April 1 of this year. The better part of eight months has already transpired. Now, they want us to vote on a budget after they have already spent eight months' worth of the money.
Does the member think it is normal for Parliament or any organization to budget after it has spent the money?
