Mr. Speaker, these rules of course were changed when this government came to office.
Was the former minister of finance, the member for LaSalle—Émard, the only minister covered by these changed guidelines, which allow updates on assets covered by a blind trust? If not, will the Prime Minister publish a list this week of the other ministers, past, present or in Denmark, who made use of this extraordinary provision?
However, if the member for LaSalle—Émard was the only one to use the loophole, was he the person who asked that the rules be changed in the first place, and why did the Prime Minister agree to those changes?
