Madam Speaker, listening always attentively to the comments and speeches opposite, I could not help but notice that as the member read the letter, the writer of the letter has come to believe that somehow a billion dollars has gone missing.
I was curious about whether or not the member himself believes that a billion dollars has gone missing, because I do not think that is factual. It may actually be the case of the adage, that if something that is not factual is repeated often enough, perhaps with the use of that rhetoric, people may be convinced that what is not factual may be the truth. It is regrettable when that type of rhetoric and exaggeration goes on but I suppose that is part of the political rhetoric of this place.
My question is for the member who just spoke and who just read that statement into the record as though it were factual. Maybe the hon. member is not prepared to answer the question, but does he believe that a billion dollars has gone missing or does he just want people to believe it because he says it might be so?
