Mr. Speaker, the minister's response makes no sense. This is appalling.
Since Winnipeg hosted the Pan American Games in 1967 and has just been selected as host of the 1999 games, in particular because it already has all the facilities required, why does the Deputy Prime Minister refuse to admit that the Prime Minister was the first to authorize the misappropriation of $5 million solely to serve the political interests of the human resources development minister, who is the person responsible for Manitoba and the member for Winnipeg South Centre?
