Mr. Speaker, I know some people who are not thankful today and those are the taxpayers who are paying a huge amount of cash to look after the minister's insatiable desire.
She says that there is no blame here whatsoever. She pretended she knew nothing about this $1 billion boondoggle for months before she actually let on. She pretended that her riding actually qualified for grants when she knew full well that it did not. Now she is pretending that it is her deputy minister who makes all the decisions.
When will the pretend minister stand up and say that she takes ministerial responsibility for this boondoggle?
