Mr. Chairman, I stated a few minutes ago that my thinking is that we could certainly delete this, but it would not serve the interest of the taxpayer to do so. We are past that point; we are beyond that point. We could send a punitive message to the department that it can't play fast and loose with taxpayers' money. I think that would unnecessarily hurt the department itself or the FMBS shop. The real message is to Cabinet, Mr. Chairman. There are two Members of today's Cabinet who are on the one that approved this measure. I guess I
would like to give the benefit of the doubt to at least those two Members and the five new ones to pay attention to what this committee, at least some Members on this committee are saying is that when it comes to exercising our options on a business deal, that if Cabinet has discretion it has to act to the fullest extent possible on behalf of those taxpayers' dollars that are put at risk. So I will not be supporting this motion.
