Mr. Speaker, we must have misunderstood the RCMP officer, who said yesterday that his hands were tied, that there was a total lack of co-operation and that they had reached an impasse. I imagine it is the minister who has the hot potato in his hands.
How does the minister explain that this government, which asked the Swiss government to violate the financial discretion rule in the Airbus case, is now doing its utmost to prevent any light being shed on CINAR, thus allowing, perhaps, some key players to get away with what they did? Perhaps these people are also friends of the Liberal Party.
