Mr. Speaker, 30 years ago, during the Watergate scandal, former President Richard Nixon had to answer two questions: what did he know and when did he know it. Today, in the tape affair, the Prime Minister has to answer the same two questions. He has said an offer was solicited, but he has yet to say when he was informed.
So, I ask the Prime Minister once again when did he know—not his parliamentary leader, but he himself—that the Conservative member was soliciting an offer from his chief of staff? Was it during or after the negotiations?
