Mr. Speaker, just because a Conservative member says something in the House does not necessarily mean that it is factually accurate, and I will give a tangible example.
Many Conservatives stand in their place and talk about a Liberal-leaning board. The member knows, and if he does not then he should know, that the chair of the board was an adviser to Stephen Harper, Brian Mulroney and Jim Flaherty, and contributed thousands of dollars to the Conservative Party. Yes, we did appoint her to the board, and there were tangible actions taken. However, all that aside, every Conservative who stands up to talk about the issue tries to give the false impression that this is some corrupt Liberal when they know full well that is not the case. Can the member explain why it is that Conservatives tend to want to exaggerate what might not necessarily be the reality?
