Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Government Leader. A week ago Mr. Morin made a public statement calling for the resignation of a very distinguished federal public servant, Mr. Stephen, who is the director general of DIAND in Yellowknife. It is my understanding of this case that the resignation that was being sought by the Minister was because this public servant had simply done his job as it was set down for him. Is it the policy of this government to allow Ministers to request the resignation of public servants simply because they are doing their job?
