Mr. Speaker, beyond the very real concerns for the welfare of Canadian seniors living in these care facilities, the Liberals' indecent rush to embrace this sketchy deal has skated too quickly past security and investment due diligence.

If the minister is so confident in this backroom deal, will he make public the analysis of the Canadian security agencies that reviewed the deal?
