I appreciate this motion, and I've asked the Auditor General to review the submarine contract because I believe there are irregularities. I believe they misrepresented the contract.

I think this should go ahead. I will be supporting it. It's exactly the same—you could exchange the submarine contract for this contract. There was also a lawsuit with respect to an alleged conflict of interest on the part of somebody associated with DND who got the contract.

I believe you should call witnesses. If the submarine story was heard, I think you would come to the conclusion that there is something wrong with the system.

Thank you.
