Mr. Speaker, in Quebec we will always respect Justice Gomery's recommendations.
By opposing the reopening of the investigation into the in and out scandal, the Conservatives are saying that the Chief Electoral Officer did not have good reason to question the ethics of their party. By refusing to amend the Access to Information Act, they are refusing to listen to the last four commissioners. By creating a $3 billion discretionary fund for the Prime Minister, the Conservative government is refusing to listen to Justice Gomery.
Why does the Prime Minister stubbornly refuse to listen to those who are asking for greater transparency?
