2015 Federal Election

There's that, but also that it's not in her power to make those changes that she's asked about. The Minister of Finance controls the purse strings. I don't think she controls any money.

Of course. But I'd expect a more experienced politician to refer to the government in general (remember "The Harper Government™"?) rather than to the MoF. And BTW she's a junior minister who reports to Navdeep Bains, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development.

Still, it's early days, she has much to learn and much to accomplish. I wish her and her colleagues every success in achieving their ambitious goals.
