Mr. Speaker, that was a terrible answer.
The Prime Minister's personal political witch hunt against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman cost taxpayers more than $1.4 million, and that is just for his government's legal fees. The Prime Minister politically interfered in an RCMP investigation by stating twice on TV that the vice-admiral would be charged even before the investigation was complete.
Now that Mark Norman's name is cleared, does the Prime Minister believe that wasting $1.4 million to smear the vice-admiral was a good use of taxpayer money?
