Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Canadian Heritage decided to allow the sale of Ginn Publishing to Paramount only for fear of being sued by Paramount.
The Star quoted Paramount's lawyer, Mr. Grover, who yesterday ruled out the possibility of Paramount suing the minister if only the minister had stood up to them.
My question is for the Minister of Canadian Heritage. Now that I have reassured the minister that he no longer has any reason to fear being sued, will he do what he should have done from the beginning in the Ginn Publishing case and cancel the sale to Paramount?
