Madam Speaker, if I drive 150 kilometres an hour through a school zone, I will lose my licence and my car.
A charitable donation is not going to minimize my crime and give me my privileges back. Under the Conflict of Interest Act, I am required to declare my assets within 60 days of my appointment. The Minister of Finance has yet to do that after 760 days. I sympathize with the parliamentary secretary who is stuck having to defend the indefensible.
When will the Minister of Finance disclose his holdings in his other numbered companies and why is he untouchable?
