Mr. Speaker, now it appears that there is a problem. Confidential information should not be made available to Liberal lobbyists just because they are part of the Liberal leader's transition team.
The Minister of Finance runs one of the most sensitive departments in the government yet he recently stated:
It would be appropriate to have some level of communication either directly or through his transition team that I know he's been putting in place.
Would the Minister of Finance tell the House if he or his office have been speaking to members of the transition team, particularly lobbyists?
