Mr. Speaker, that was fantastic. I appreciated the speech by my hon. colleague across the way.
When it was time to get to the bottom of the scandals involving the Mulroney government, the Liberals had some questions, and rightly so.
When the Harper government was involved in scandals, the Liberals wanted to get to the bottom of them, and rightly so.
When the sponsorship scandal erupted, the Bloc wanted to get to the bottom of it, and rightly so.
My hon. colleague said we are being partisan because we would dare try to get to the bottom of a scandal involving the Prime Minister. He said so vigorously and passionately. I actually have to tip my hat to my hon. colleague, because in doing so, he is the one reaching new heights of partisanship. I would even say that his speech was the Himalayas of partisanship.
I listened to my hon. colleague and I must say, I do not know how he does it. I just said I had to tip my hat to him.
This is what I want to know: As a representative of the people, how can he defend the indefensible?
