Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Heritage's luncheon in Los Angeles continues to leave a bad taste in the mouths of Canadians. The list of names of people in attendance supplied by his own office shows that Roger Mayer, president of Turner Broadcasting, was conveniently left off the list. Mr. Mayer, however, insists that he attended the lunch with the minister.
Why did the Minister of Heritage hide the fact that Roger Mayer actually attended the lunch? Could it be because Turner Broadcasting has an application before Investment Canada?
