Mr. Speaker, it is very frustrating for me to hear the parliamentary secretary repeat the same old thing. He has announced absolutely nothing new.
We still do not know if the federal government is wiling to spend any money to cover the $10 million or $15 million it is going to cost to dismantle the ship. We also do not know how frequently the Canadian Coast Guard is monitoring the ship.
The only thing we have learned since March is that once a week, a helicopter checks on the ship from the air. We do not know if the engine room has been inspected or how many times the hull has been inspected. We do not know if the ship is still taking on water. In fact, in March, contaminated water seeped into the ship. We do not know what happened.
We do not know what is happening, and the only thing the government has to say is that a working group is looking into the matter.
We know the group is doing its work, but what is the government doing? What is it promising?
