Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will confirm that Mayor Miltenberger from Hay River was with me and that he did want to go down and pay a quick courtesy call to the Member, who wasn’t there and he left her a message. I think the rest is assumption on the Member’s part. The news of that motion was all over the place. The word was out that there was something afoot. There were calls received from High Arctic up in the North. People had heard already, so she has made some fairly damning accusations against the mayor; making some very strong allegations about the contempt.

I can assure this House that there is no point of contempt here. If I was remiss in letting my brother out of my sight for 30 seconds, then I guess I have to be held accountable for that. The Member came into my office this morning, demanding to know if I had been in her office. I had not been. I leave it to the Speaker to sort through this matter, but I can assure you the intent I think on both of our parts, the mayor and I, were honourable and there are some significant aspersions cast here without real evidence. Thank you.
