Mr. Speaker, what is really wrong is the attitude, facts and presentation of the hon. member. The only thing wrong with the visit is the kind of position that party has taken.
Let me cite the facts. The decision of the Haitian president to come to Canada was based solely upon the need to work with the American government and our own government. He made that decision at a time that was most convenient after his inauguration. During his visit he is meeting with senior business leaders here in Ottawa and in Quebec. He is meeting with the leader of the Government of Quebec. He is also meeting with the Leader of the Opposition. There is nothing partisan about that. He just wants to meet with people who are interested in the welfare of Haiti. That is one reason he is not meeting with the Reform Party.
