Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague's question is an insightful one.
It is obvious that there is a problem. That is why I am saying that individual candidates should be responsible for the expenses they incur during an election campaign. There is one word all of us in this House must remember and that is transparency.
We should never be afraid of expenses incurred in an election campaign. More importantly, we should never be afraid to answer questions designed to determine whether or not our election expenses were permissible and, more importantly, legally permitted, which does not seem to be the case here.
The poor woman must be on the verge of losing her job. We know of others who have been removed by the Conservative government.
