Mr. Speaker, the government has been absolutely clear. We want to get to the bottom of this situation. That is why we want public accounts to get on with its work. That is why the Prime Minister put in place an independent judicial inquiry. That is why we have special counsel at work determining how much of the dollars spent can be recovered. That is why we introduced whistleblower legislation. That is why we are reviewing the relationship between crown corporations and the government. We are committed to finding out what happened here.
