Mr. Speaker, yesterday during question period the Prime Minister admitted that he consulted no government officials in regard to the Power Corp. deal.
In an interview the heritage minister indicated that there was no reason to consult. The Prime Minister has just now repeated again that there was no need to consult.
In view of the fact that in these affairs Liberal insiders stand to gain millions and maybe billions of dollars, why not ask the ethics counsellor to put the thing to rest, to have a free and open investigation?
