For the record, the money to which I just referred, Mr. Chairman, was announced, and farmers were told that the money would flow by December 1 of that year.
It never flowed at all until after the Conservative Party of Canada was elected to government on January 23. One of the first issues that the Prime Minister did was order that the money be released.
So there were two and a half months, Mr. Chairman, when that money could have flowed, should have flowed, but didn't. To this day, we're not sure why. Anyway, I hope this clears that up.
