Mr. Speaker, when the member claims that the government has been co-operative all along, he is uttering a falsehood. I have been involved, along with the member for South Shore—St. Margarets, in trying to get to the bottom of the corruption, and every step of the way, the Liberals have voted to block and obstruct the ability of various committees to do their work. They have voted against every motion to produce documents, for example.
The minister failed to fire the board. The minister dragged his feet in finally taking any action. Only when the Auditor General released her damning report did he see fit to fire the board. With respect to the inaction of the government, do not take my word for it; take the word of the whistle-blower who called the minister's actions corrupt and deceitful.
