Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer is again calling for a return of Parliament.

The House of Commons stands adjourned until May 25, though has returned several times in a modified form to pass emergency aid legislation.

Committees are also still meeting virtually, and a special one dealing solely with response to the COVID-19 pandemic meets twice a week virtually and once in person.

But Scheer says as restrictions begin to lift across the country and a slow economic recovery begins, it is even more important to be able to keep the Liberal government accountable for the billions in aid they've spent.
