Mr. Speaker, the majority report is very favourable. Actually, there are plenty of very favourable comments on work done by the auditor general. I admit that they disagree with the auditor general on one particular point. However, a standing committee of our House has the right to criticize or to disagree with an employee of Parliament, whether, as
I said yesterday, he happens to be the Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance, the Governor of the Bank of Canada or the auditor general.
The hon. member asks me why we endorse the majority report. It is because the report endorses the vast majority of remarks and comments made by the auditor general. That is why.
