I think it's inappropriate for the government to come to Parliament to ask permission to spend this money before we even know the details. I mean, talk about a pig in a poke. I was here ready to argue about the Royal LePage settlement because I assumed that's what it was. We've examined that in great detail over 15 years, but if we don't even know what it is, I think that's a weakness in our system if you're coming for the approval of the appropriation of the money before we have any information whatsoever to go on.
