We are still under a veil of secrecy here.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879552\" data-originallang=\"en\">The parliamentary secretary for infrastructure received three proposals from Rahim Jaffer at a meeting he failed to disclose with the former Conservative caucus chair turned unregistered lobbyist. The first involved biomass technology, the technology Mr. Jaffer represented and his wife, then a cabinet minister, was pushing. Another proposal was for solar power, a technology we now learn that Mr. Jaffer's business partner, Mr. Gillani, is linked to through Solterra Corporation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879553\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the government turn over these proposals and disclose any other illicit lobbying?</p>",

La premi\u00e8re concernait la technologie de la biomasse, technologie que M. Jaffer repr\u00e9sentait et dont sa femme, alors ministre, faisait la promotion. Une autre proposition concernait l'\u00e9nergie solaire, et nous savons maintenant que l'associ\u00e9 de M. Jaffer, M.
