Madam Speaker, knowing the leader of the Bloc Quebecois' leadership problems, he is obviously looking for something to rally his gang around him. And what a lovely sight it is to see them all flocking along behind him this morning.
If the head of the Bloc Quebecois and the leader of the party are one and the same person, I would have some questions to put to him. When the father of the Bloc Quebecois, Lucien Bouchard, was elected in 1988—different party, Conservative, but the same man—he reported $41 000 in campaign expenditures under “other parties”, “other organizations”. There were amounts for individuals, and there was the amount of $41 000 from other organizations for his campaign.
First of all, does he agree with this? Second, is it true, as is alleged, that the Bloc Quebecois might possibly have received funds from financial institutions that are not individuals? Can the leader of the Bloc Quebecois tell me whether he has received considerable amounts from certain banks, that is corporate entities and not individuals?
