Mr. Chair, I'd like you to ask Mr. Rodriguez to observe the discipline that we have around this table. We have always managed to do so with other ministers. I don't understand why he has adopted this attitude.
Mr. Rodriguez, my question is very clear: if there is some confusion between the powers that are conferred on you and on Ms. Petitpas Taylor, wouldn't it be more in the interest of francophones to give full powers to the Treasury Board?
It's a clear question. It isn't important whether you consider it relevant or not. I'm asking you to answer it. I'm a parliamentarian, and I'm asking the Minister of Canadian Heritage to answer my question.
