Mr. Speaker, unfortunately, this is very typical of the low and partisan attacks by the Liberal Party. It is well-known and well-documented that all expenses incurred by the former president of the Toronto Port Authority were well within hospitality guidelines. In fact, the board of the port authority had said that all the expenses followed correct procedures and guidelines. The audit committee said the same thing.
Quite frankly, I find it troubling that the members opposite would take an issue such as this to try and smear the reputation of a hard-working minister.
