Mr. Speaker, through all the character assassination, the minister has not answered this simple question. It is a very important question because it applies to the question of what rights and entitlements Mr. Wright had as a result of his choosing to resign on Sunday after his misdemeanours were discovered on the Wednesday before. It took the government five days to make up its mind as to how it was going to handle it.
Let me ask the minister one more time and give him one more chance. Did the Government of Canada have cause to fire Mr. Wright, yes or no?
