Mr. Speaker, this will leave the impression only in the mind of the hon. member. I cannot account for what is in the mind of the hon. member, but it is not supported by the facts.
At that time the Prime Minister was in private life. He was entitled to engage in business transactions. He left his directorships when he began in 1990, years later, to seek the leadership of the Liberal Party. At the present time all his assets are in a blind trust.
Surely this is an indication of totally proper conduct.
