Mr. Speaker, I think the Prime Minister gave a very good explanation of our government's practice, which is to allow certain companies that behave like responsible corporate citizens to benefit from this opportunity to encourage our country's hospitality. What these companies are doing, obviously, is acquiring a certain visibility vis-à-vis countries where this is important.
But I think that we have been very clear that these companies will not have privileged access to heads of government. They are doing this for the visibility and in order to improve Canada's credibility and skill when it comes to providing top-notch hospitality, rather than having taxpayers foot the bill, which is what the Bloc Quebecois would prefer.
