Absolutely not, Mr. Speaker. Everything is running normally. There will be a new prime minister in coming months. Everything should go smoothly. Decisions will be made by the new government. In the meantime, they are our decisions too. There is nothing abnormal in being able to communicate a bit and provide certain information, just as we do here in the House of Commons.
Moreover, the hon. member himself is involved in negotiations. I do not know if he is consulting with Mr. Orchard during his current negotiations with the Leader of the Opposition .
