Mr. Speaker, what bothers the Bloc Quebecois is not the fact that the government party travels at the taxpayers' expense for so-called information purposes. What bothers us is that they are not providing information; they are handing out cheques for projects on which opposition members have worked. They show up in the riding just to hand out a cheque, and the information they have to give is so public that they forget to actually invite people.
If it were public information, why would the member representing the riding not be invited when the minister stops by? I would be interested to hear the information government members have to give.
If it were real information, it should be public, transparent and clear. They should not be afraid to speak openly and publicly.
