Mr. Speaker, in his defence, the anchor Claude Beauchamp maintains that all he has done is provide financial support to the Canadian Unity Council and has not participated in any of its political activities in ten years. However, it has come to our attention that, as a board member of the Canadian Unity Council, he was a speaker at an event sponsored by the Centre for Research and Information on Canada, which is a Canadian Unity Council organization.
Under these circumstances, how can anyone claim that Claude Beauchamp is not politically active in promoting Canadian unity?
