Madam Speaker, I said it before, and I will say it again, the Liberals understand what is grist to their mill and acts in their favour. When they present their bill, their code of ethics, it will not be appropriate to bring up past cases. The member who asked the question is well aware of that. He is trying to ensnare me. He knows that we will not be able to mention the Pearson airport deal when his government finally decides to present its bill.
We will debate the essence of the bill, its strengths and weaknesses, which I expect will be many. But we will not be allowed to talk about the maneuvering that preceded the Toronto airport deal. Being a lot more experienced, he knows that better than me. I cannot understand why the Liberals who, during the election campaign, opposed this deal which was in the process of being completed, are now very sheepish, having realized since October 7, when the contract was signed, that some of their friends were involved in that deal. Does this explain the compensation under clause 10?
