Mr. Speaker, I am not making an argument. I am simply quoting what the ethics counsellor said, which was that because the parent company was listed the blind trust rules would still have applied.
What we are getting at here is the essence of this. Is there a conflict? The ethics counsellor says that it is covered by the blind trust rules. The opposition is not interested in whether or not there was a conflict. All it is interested in is trying to hurt somebody's reputation. It is unworthy.
