Mr. Speaker, in 2002 I pointed out to the then minister of public works that VIA Rail had laundered $1 million from the Liberal advertising scam and, worse, that Lafleur Communications Marketing was paid $112,000 to deliver the cheque to VIA and then donated $57,000 to the Liberal Party.
The minister, who is now the Minister of Finance, stated that he too was troubled by this file and had referred it to the RCMP for investigation.
Could he now tell us what the outcome of that RCMP investigation was?
