Mr. Speaker, on the contrary, I think that when a member of parliament from the Reform Party is getting a grant or helping to get a grant for his constituents, he is just doing his job. He is making sure that his constituents benefit from the programs available from government. Some have quite rightly said that they do not agree with grants, but we are not to deprive under our system our electors from receiving the money that is available to them. I think that is exactly what I have done as the member of parliament for Saint-Maurice. I keep saying the same thing. I have followed all the rules for 36 years.
In the House of Commons on June 3rd, 1999. See this statement in context.
