Mr. Speaker, if Bloc Quebecois members had not asked questions about CINAR in the House, if journalists had not probed deeper, if an RCMP officer had not raised the alarm on television, there is a good chance that none of this would have come to light and that, consequently, nothing would have been done to put a stop to these dubious practices. Ms. Charest would probably still be hosting benefit dinners for the Liberal Party of Canada.
Who does the government want to protect? What important players may be missed because of the lack of co-operation of the Department of National Revenue? More friends of the Liberal Party?
