Mr. Speaker, long live the king.
The auditor general has refused to sign off on the government's books. It can try to discuss that away but it simply will not work. If the auditor refused to sign off on a private company's books Revenue Canada would move in, the management would be fired and there would be an investigation.
I again ask this question of the revenue minister and I would like an answer. Should Canadian businesses be allowed to operate their books the way the finance minister has been, thinking he is against the law?
