Mr. Speaker, the document refers to activities and events connected with many different programs, not simply the transitional jobs fund. It is part of the ordinary democratic process of governments past and present, federal and provincial, for ministers and members to attend sites of activities and events to show what the government is doing to help ordinary Canadians all over the country. There is nothing wrong with that. It is part of the democratic process.
