Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Prime Minister.
Last November I asked the Minister of Foreign Affairs why his department was funding environmental groups whose main purpose was to actively discredit B.C. logging practices in North America and in Europe. Since 1990 the Western Canada Wilderness Committee has received over $754,000 from foreign affairs, environment, human resources development, heritage and natural resources.
Does the Prime Minister support providing federal funding to groups whose main purpose is to undermine our number one industry in Canada, forestry?
