Citizenship and Immigration committee  Allow the witness to answer if he wants to.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Do you want to stop the clock, Mr. Chair?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Well, we're going to get a lot of points of order here. Mr. Fadden, you were asked, as well as the minister, to provide figures and facts for us of what the expenses were to promote Bill C-50, travel of different ministers, and I was wondering.... You did get that e-mail, I'm sure.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Would that include your visit to Toronto when this committee was travelling, where you met with three people from the media? Does that include the Prime Minister's trip to Toronto to point out his facts and figures to the Indian gala dinner?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  What are the other ministers'...when they travel and they are promoting immigration? Can you not get those numbers?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  In the advertising of $1.6 million, I believe it is--

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Mr. Fadden, would you also undertake to let this committee know in how many of those papers the minister gave interviews?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  $1.1 million. Is the word “C-50” mentioned anywhere in there?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'm sure the deputy must know the ads. At the end of the day they were okayed by the department. It was $1.1 million.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Are all the ads identical in all the newspapers?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Mr. Fadden, sir, your department, in which on a daily basis you are hands on--and you have your folks here with you--okayed a particular ad. Are the ads similar in all the papers? Yes or no.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Are there any words omitted from one ethnicity to another?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  Would you undertake, sir, to advise this committee whether all the ads that were given out for translation were the same ads, and if all the translations were done correctly?

Citizenship and Immigration committee  As well as editorials that were written supporting the position of the department.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  I'm sure you can call for the newspapers of that particular day. All the ads appeared last week. You can call the newspaper and see whether the minister gave an interview.
