Royal Canadian Mounted Police  Mr. Speaker, I do not agree with the premise of my hon. friend's question. I cannot confirm these allegations, but I can add that Mr. Audet's complaints are subject to investigation by the RCMP's Public Complaints Commission, and I think that we should wait for the result

Airbus Affair  Mr. Speaker, I reject the premise of my hon. friend's question because the investigation in question is active. It is ongoing. Brian Mulroney in agreeing to the settlement of the case against him said: "The parties have always acknowledged that the RCMP must continue

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, in a constructive way I would like to advance a point that had not occurred to me when I spoke. The premises in question are not parliamentary buildings. They are occupied by the press gallery which I think as part of the traditional autonomy of the gallery runs

Rcmp Investigations  Mr. Speaker, I think one has to reject the premise of the hon. member's question. It has not been confirmed exactly who the targets of the investigation might be. The solicitor general said yesterday they could be on one side of the House or his side of the House, or it could

Rcmp Investigations  Mr. Speaker, the relationship continues as it was in the past. The arm's length relationship is still there as it should be. My hon. friend in his squealing has not made a valid assertion. He should look at himself in the mirror before he presents these unwarranted premises

Canada Pension Plan  Mr. Speaker, we reject the premise of the hon. member's question. Our reforms of the Canada pension plan, which have been worked out in co-operation with eight of the provinces, are designed to help middle and lower income Canadians. They are designed to respect the needs

Airbus  Mr. Speaker, I do not accept the premise of the hon. member's question. The use of the word lying is not one with which we associate ourselves in the context of the question. There is no cover-up. Brian Mulroney himself in the minutes of settlement ending the litigation said

Airbus  Mr. Speaker, I reject the premise of the hon. member's question. There is no cover-up. If the hon. member had his way the Canadian taxpayer would have paid Brian Mulroney $50 million. Because of our negotiations that claim was dropped and that money saved to the Canadian

Aboriginal Affairs  Mr. Speaker, first of all, the premise, as far as I am aware, of the hon. member's question is wrong. We are aware of only one incident where a letter was leaked. That is the matter of the Starlight letter. This is being thoroughly investigated by an experienced investigator

Bill C-28  Mr. Speaker, the premise of the member's question is erroneous, because I am told that Mr. Farber did not say that. There is therefore no serious grounds for the member's question.

Child Poverty  Mr. Speaker, I reject totally the unwarranted premise and allegation in the hon. member's question. We have been working actively to deal with the issue of child poverty. We intend to continue doing so and we invite the provincial and local governments to join with us

Bill C-28  Mr. Speaker, first I want to check to see whether the premise of the hon. member's question is factually correct. Second, I repeat my question. Is what he has just asked a sign that the Reform Party is now going to get into some type of ménage à quatre in bed with the NDP

The Economy  Mr. Speaker, I reject the premise of the hon. member's question. In his first question he complained about money likely to be spent for education of young Canadians. Why do he and the Reform Party oppose helping young Canadians get a better education? What do they have against

Employment  Mr. Speaker, I must say I question the accuracy of the premise in the hon. member's question about the so-called purple book. In return I ask her to throw away her purple rhetoric and get down to business working with us to help create jobs and a better life for Canadians.
