Mr. Speaker, it is important to note that Elections Canada is independent of government. Decisions are taken separate from any government.
When it comes to the member's question, it is important to note that these donations were made between 2004 and 2009. The commissioner of Canada elections did do an investigation. When both parties were informed, these donations were returned.
We will always fully comply with fundraising and donation rules. Anyone making political donations is expected to do the same.
