Mr. Speaker, I can tell the hon. colleague from York—Durham that, for an absolute fact, there is absolutely nothing illegal about things the Canadian government has done for which we have ended up having to shell out money.
As for being secret, I recommend that the member have a look at the Canada investment promotion and protection agreement with the People's Republic of China, which must remain entirely secret throughout the entire tribunal. The results may be made public by Canada at the end, but the fact of a challenge by the People's Republic of China against the Canadian government is secret and must remain secret. We are bound to it for 35 years without ever having had a vote in the House, because it was approved by Stephen Harper's cabinet.
