Mr. Speaker, it is clear the justice minister bungled this case. He could have stopped this action by withdrawing the letter on which the $50 million lawsuit was based. He chose not to do it.
The million dollar Airbus deal was designed to protect the reputations of the justice minister, the solicitor general and Brian Mulroney. The justice minister apologized to Mr. Mulroney. Is he now prepared to apologize to the Canadian taxpayers for the needless waste of millions of their dollars?
