Mr. Speaker, the dissenting report by the Bloc Quebec included the following statement:
The Bloc Quebecois, on the basis of the valuable testimony collected during the public hearing, is of the opinion that there is, however, an obvious and marked lack of transparency in the way the EDC operated. There is a severe lack of transparency.
In all of this can be seen, and the hon. member says she was on the committee, that, in examining the bill:
—it was impossible for a Bloc Quebecois member to obtain any breakdown of the Corporation's financial activities in Quebec. It therefore seemed vital to the Bloc that the EDC, in keeping with the report's recommendations, be subject to the Access to Information Act.
Why not be transparent and disclose information? Does it seem that some of it might be confidential?
