Mr. Speaker, I would ask the Prime Minister to do his homework and after 10 years be able to answer a question on this subject.
Could the Prime Minister confirm that the former finance minister was not actually under the rules of a specific blind trust but had a so-called special supervisory agreement? Under this arrangement, the Liberal ethics counsellor has reportedly stated that the former finance minister could also provide direction to his companies.
Could the Prime Minister explain how such an arrangement could possibly prevent conflict of interest in a cabinet portfolio?
