Solicitor General Of Canada  Mr. Speaker, I totally reject the premise of the hon. member's question. Obviously, if the premise is false, there is no reason to ask the minister to resign or for the minister to change jobs.

Human Resources Development  Whether it is the RCMP or a local police force, they will do their duty and, in consultation with crown attorneys, will decide what steps are to be taken. The premise of the member's question is totally off base, as usual.

Human Resources Development  Mr. Speaker, the hon. member's premise for his question is totally wrong. The Prime Minister has not interfered with the process. The decisions were made by officials according to the rules. I hope that is the case in the hon. member's riding and others, where Reform and other opposition members pleaded in writing for support from these programs.

Agriculture  Mr. Speaker, as usual, the hon. member's premise is totally wrong. The government is providing over a billion and a half dollars of assistance to farmers in Saskatchewan and elsewhere. We are very concerned about their problems. The allegation that the Minister of Human Resources Development is mismanaging government funds is totally wrong, totally unwarranted, not demonstrated by the audit, and the auditor general is carrying out his own audit.

Human Resources Development  If the hon. member wants to pay attention to the audit report, the subject of questions all week, then why does he not go back and read it and admit that the premise of his questions is entirely wrong?

Transitional Jobs Fund  Mr. Speaker, the premise of my hon. friend's question is totally wrong. The Prime Minister is not personally involved. This matter was dealt with by officials according to the structure of the program. My hon. friend ought to withdraw his unwarranted slur on the Prime Minister.

Child Poverty  Mr. Speaker, historically there is an unwarranted and faulty premise in the hon. member's questions. We have worked actively for poor children. A major example is the national child benefit. We put billions of dollars into it. We will do more. We will continue working for poor children and we will build on the good record we have already achieved.

Aboriginal Affairs  Speaker, the hon. member has answered the question as to why there should not be a referendum. It is that the premises on which she bases her call for a referendum are totally wrong. She says the Nisga'a treaty amends the constitution. It does not amend the constitution. She says it harms women's rights.

Homelessness  In addition to that we are working on further programs with the provinces. Instead of my hon. friend's unjustified premise, she should look at the actual facts. We are doing something now to help solve this serious problem and we will continue to work on further solutions.

Apec Inquiry  Mr. Speaker, I reject out of hand the premise on which the hon. member's question is based. Let us allow the APEC inquiry to do its work. All these questions are up to the Hon. former Justice Hughes to decide. So let us allow the tribunal to do its work.

Apec Inquiry  Mr. Speaker, the premise of our hon. friend's question is not valid. The commission has not ruled on these documents. They have simply been entered into the record before the commission. It is up to the commissioner to weigh them along with everything else before the commission.

Apec Inquiry  Mr. Speaker, I do not accept, in fact I reject the premise of the hon. member's question. At the same time, I wonder why the hon. member does not respect the jurisdiction of the tribunal and wants to have its work duplicated improperly in the House.

Apec Inquiry  Mr. Speaker, I again reject the premise of the hon. member's question. There has not been a finding to that effect by Mr. Hughes. The commission has not completed its hearings. Mr. Hughes has not rendered his judgment. If the hon. member asks why in addition to answering questions I ask them, I want to demonstrate that the Reform Party members on this or any other subject fail to have any real, meaningful or important answers.

Apec Inquiry  Mr. Speaker, I reject categorically the premise of the hon. member's question. I do not accept it at all. I will repeat that this matter is being considered by an arm's length tribunal headed by a very distinguished former judge.

Aboriginal Affairs  The minister does not consider herself above the law. She takes the Privacy Act very seriously, as does the government, and the hon. member's premise, therefore, is totally unfounded.
