Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Drummond, Mr. Lake keeps bringing up jail time. I guess he doesn't understand that no Canadian has ever been put in jail for refusing to answer the long-form census. Mr. Bernier blames the Liberals for the 2006 census, yet this morning Mr. Clement was here and he rhymed off three or four questions—I don't remember what the questions were—that were inappropriate to be on the census.
If the government owns the census, couldn't Mr. Clement have removed those questions, and couldn't the Conservative government remove the fine if they wanted to?
