Mr. Speaker, I am encouraged by the member in the sense that he has indicated that there was no violation of the conflict of interest law. The only thing that would be nice to hear from the member is his recognition of the fact that the Ethics Commissioner has already told Canadians and the minister that there was nothing wrong in regard to this particular event.
In the last quarter of last year over 55,000 Canadians chose to donate to the Liberal Party of Canada. All political parties take part in proactive fundraising.
I always look at the glass being half full. I appreciate the member's admission that the Minister of Justice did nothing wrong. I understand and appreciate that he is making reference to the Prime Minister's manual. I can assure the member that the Minister of Justice is in complete compliance with that too.
