Mr. Speaker, I would have thought that the hon. member, as a member of the transport committee which studied Bill C-9, would know what the law states. The law states that one member of the advisory group of the port authority is nominated by a province and one by the municipality.
The appointment of Mr. Woodward was the prerogative of the provincial government. The provincial government was well aware of what the law states and I understand that the provincial government has sought legal advice and believes that the appointment of Mr. Woodward is in compliance with the law.
