Mr. Speaker, I think that this is a question of the member who is quite irrelevant here if he does not know exactly how the program works and what were the rules applied to the member of Parliament for LaSalle—Émard.
It was very clear that the ethics counsellor was to address the entire matter and did so. Neither the hon. member for LaSalle—Émard nor any of his associates was involved in the process.
Due diligence was there. This was based on merit. This is why it was accepted in the program, not to benefit the member of Parliament himself. Let us say the truth here in this Parliament.
