Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I think it's useful at this late hour—even though it's a quarter after one, we're all hungry, and some people are getting grumpy—that we try to cut through the smoke screen that's been put up by Darwin's waiting room over here and we try to establish the real salient points here. The Conservatives spent $1.3 million more than they were allowed to under the Canada Elections Act's spending limits. Then they hid those expenses by trying to transfer the expenses to the books of local riding associations. That act in itself is a fraudulent effort to hide a contravention of the Canada Elections Act.
Do you agree?
