Mr. Speaker, the minister is sounding a little bit like Alexander Haig.
On Thursday, the Leader of the Opposition asked the Prime Minister, “Has the Prime Minister ever discussed the wireless spectrum with Brian Mulroney?” The Prime Minister refused to answer.
Why did it take two hours for the PMO to answer a simple question? Either the Prime Minister spoke to Mr. Mulroney about wireless or not.
During those two hours, did the Prime Minister's Office speak with Brian Mulroney or his representatives just to get their stories straight?
