Je sais que d'autres membres du comité y étaient, mais je pense me souvenir d'un ministre—je pense qu'on l'appelait quelque chose comme le gardien du cartable—qui, pendant quelques semaines, a brandi des feuilles contenant des listes de subventions, de contributions et de prêts, de documents d'information, et de divers programmes regroupés par circonscription.
I know other members of the committee were here, but I seem to recall the image of a government minister—I think he was referred to as “binder boy”—waving around sheets with detailed listings of grants and contributions, loans, handouts, and various programs by constituency for some weeks. He had this information available to him, I assume fairly readily, too.
