Mr. Speaker, the wife of a senior government bureaucrat in the Canadian Environmental Protection Agency has staked a number of mineral claims along the route of the Mackenzie Valley pipeline. She did this years before the route was made public. But her husband, who worked on the file, knew the proposed route.
It seems that there is a clear breach of section 29 of the Territorial Lands Act.
Could the environment minister perhaps tell us if he has investigated this case; and if he has, what has he done about it?
