Mr. Speaker, on August 11, just one month after the ethics screen was put in place, the Prime Minister was seen speaking with and taking photos with, again, none other than Mr. Pollock, who is, as I mentioned, a part of Brookfield Infrastructure. Then, on October 3 of last year, the Prime Minister met again with the CEO of Brookfield, Justin Beber. All of these things taken individually may be understandable, but when we consider the entire picture of all of the meetings and lobbying that has taken place with the Prime Minister and his former business associates, it leads to questions. When the CEO of Brookfield appeared at the ethics committee, he suggested a very simple means to address some of these concerns, which was for the Prime Minister to divest himself of these assets.
Given there is a simple solution to this issue, which is to sell the assets, why has the Prime Minister not done so yet?
