If the Minister knows that the scour rock used on the south side didn’t meet standards, again, I’m having trouble understanding if the quality assurances and quality controls are in place on that project how that rock could end up at the bottom of the river. That’s a pretty fundamental question for me. Does the Minister have pictures of that scour rock that was used? Has he seen pictures of that scour rock? Has the department seen pictures of the scour rock? I do have a number of pictures that I’ll table in the House and that I will share with the Minister. I wanted to make that abundantly clear. I know these guys are calling me out a little bit on the information that I have. I just got those pictures Sunday night. We were back here yesterday and I mentioned it to the Minister yesterday in the meetings we had. I’ve been up front and I will continue to be up front. Obviously I don’t take throwing around accusations like workmanship and deficiencies in that project very lightly. I want to know what I’m talking about. I’m not just going to come in here and shoot my mouth off. I’d have to have every assurance from the person that I’ve been talking to that they know what they’re talking about. And I do. I do have a lot of assurance that this individual is credible and what he is saying has a lot of merit. I will share those pictures with you. I’ve told my colleagues here on this side of the House, I told them this morning at P and P, if anybody wants to see the pictures they’re more than welcome to see them. Like I said, I’ll table them in the House so that everybody can see these pictures. They speak to a few issues. One of those issues is that scour rock. I asked the Minister, he said he had some pictures, let’s compare pictures. Does he have pictures of that scour rock that was used on the south side piers?
