Mr. Speaker, on Friday, the Minister of Canadian Heritage said in this house that she did not know that members of her staff or of her department were aware of the investigation into CINAR, a Montreal production company.
A few minutes later, she told the media that her deputy minister knew about the investigation. Given that she had the whole weekend to do so, the minister must surely have checked things out.
Could the minister confirm that no other person from her department or from any organization accountable to her department was aware of that issue?
