Mr. Speaker, first permit me to reconfirm our deep appreciation and respect for the work of the Auditor General and his staff.
I have to ask if the Conservatives are gluttons for punishment. Let us look at the accounts. They cut the budget of the Auditor General. The Liberals voted against that. We added $41 million to the budget of the Auditor General. The Conservatives voted against that. What is so difficult to understand? We support the Auditor General.
