Mr. Speaker, I have a quotation, too.
The current Minister of Finance, when he was a minister in the Ontario legislature, announced in a press release, “...four projects for priority action in support of Toronto's bid for the 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Games”, to which the federal government contributed $500 million.” Ten years later, Quebeckers are still contributing to this $500 million through their taxes.
Why are the reasons given to justify funding the Toronto bid not applicable to funding for the Quebec City arena. Is that fair?
