Mr. Chairman, in fact, I asked a question this afternoon to find out whether the government would support the motion asking the former lieutenant-governor to appear before the committee. The Minister of Heritage replied that it was up to each committee to decide whom it would like to hear. So I don't see what why we should refer to the Constitution, nor do I see any danger in doing so, especially since two days after the facts were revealed by the Auditor General of Canada and the Auditor General of Quebec, the Government of Quebec decided to call the former lieutenant-governor to hold her accountable for her annual expenses.
So I don't see why there would be any constitutional implications, especially since Ms. Thibault is no longer the lieutenant-governor. Quebec now has a new lieutenant-governor. I cannot get over the fact that this issue has been raised. I really do not understand what is happening, except that perhaps people are engaging in obstruction. As for the constitutional aspect, how can the government of Quebec have gotten to the bottom of the matter in two days, when there are still unanswered questions with regard to the person who does not hold that position anymore.
