Mr. Speaker, my question is for the minister responsible for Canada Post.
Canada Post is about to enter into a $300 million sale and lease back for all of its outside furniture. The government's partner in this deal is a consortium headed by SNC Lavalin, a name well known as friends of the government, which in fact contributed $73,000 to the Liberal election campaign in 1993.
Will the minister responsible for Canada Post make available a cost benefit analysis of this lease back deal? And will the minister make public the tendering process that is used to put this deal together?
