Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. During question period the Deputy Prime Minister, in response to a question from me in which I asked him if his government would take immediate steps to eliminate fundraising in Canada by Hezbollah, replied that had been done. I have documents here from the Department of Foreign Affairs and from the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions which speak to the fact that is not the case.
I want to avoid a repeat of what happened with the defence minister earlier. I would like to give the Deputy Prime Minister an opportunity to clarify the situation and table any documents that support his contention that the government has in fact eliminated Hezbollah fundraising opportunities.
