Mr. Speaker, I can assure the member that the only preparation for question period of which I am aware is the one that comes out of my department.
I can say to the member that he continues to draw a link with Mr. Jean Carle. A former chief of staff to the leader of the Conservative Party now works for government in a senior position. A former chief of staff to the Deputy Prime Minister, under the government in which he served, now works in a senior position in this government.
That former chief of staff of yours is my deputy minister and is a qualified individual, as qualified to work for government as Jean Carle.
