Mr. Speaker, someone over here said that we should research our questions a little more. I have a long disgusting list of Liberal research grants at my disposal.
My question is for the Minister of Finance who is making great sport of assuring the Canadian people in foreign money markets that his government is serious about fiscal responsibility.
Is he aware that the Ministry of Industry recently approved a grant of $33,800 for the study of major league baseball in Detroit: "The Detroit Tigers, 1945 to 1992"? Can he explain to beleaguered taxpayers how spending their money like this is more important than lowering taxes?
