Mr. Speaker, how many scandals? Let me count the number: the former public works minister and chateau Boulay; the former defence minister and his contracting gal pal; the Prime Minister and Shawinigate; and now the industry minister's favours for fishing vacation. Those are just a few examples of the rampant level of mismanagement, misrepresentation and corruption in the government.
The rot in the government is running deep. Ministers of the crown should not accept gifts from corporations.
What part of a blatant conflict of interest does the minister not understand?
