Mr. Speaker, we have heard the Prime Minister defend the Minister of Finance in this debacle regarding Bill C-28. We have heard him say that it is the secretary of state who is handling the file. Bill C-28 says it is the Minister of Finance who sponsored the bill. Do we believe this stuff or do we treat it with contempt? Which is it?
In the House of Commons on February 19th, 1998. See this statement in context.
