Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Prime Minister.
On February 15 of this year the Prime Minister said the government would study the concentration of newspaper ownership in response to Thomson's announcement that it would sell off most of its newspapers. Given that Hollinger announced last week that over 300 community papers and over 50 daily papers could now be up for sale, can the Prime Minister inform the House of the progress of his study? Will he use this unique opportunity to bring in a newspaper act as the royal commission on newspapers recommended?
