The RCMP has identified that it is Senator Duffy and Nigel Wright who are the subjects of the investigation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528803\" data-originallang=\"en\">In the documents the member refers to, I would refer him to page 72, where it says, \u201cI am not aware of any evidence that the Prime Minister was involved in the repayment or reimbursement of money to Senator Duffy or his lawyer\u201d.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528804\" data-originallang=\"en\">The documents also show on page 21 that this <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">Prime Minister</a> showed the leadership Canadians expect by making sure that his office provided any assistance the RCMP required, including turning over hundreds of emails for it to review.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528805\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Again, it is Nigel Wright and Senator Duffy who are the subjects of the investigation.</p>",

Elle a d\u00e9termin\u00e9 que c'\u00e9tait le s\u00e9nateur Duffy et Nigel Wright qui faisaient l'objet de l'enqu\u00eate.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528803\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'invite le d\u00e9put\u00e9 \u00e0 consulter la page 72, dans les documents dont il parle. Il y est \u00e9crit ceci: \u00ab \u00c0 ma connaissance, aucune preuve ne d\u00e9montre que le premier ministre \u00e9tait impliqu\u00e9 dans le paiement ou le remboursement vers\u00e9s au s\u00e9nateur Duffy ou \u00e0 son avocate. \u00bb</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528804\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les documents montrent aussi, \u00e0 la page 21, que le <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">premier ministre</a> a pris ses responsabilit\u00e9s comme les Canadiens le souhaitent. Il a veill\u00e9 \u00e0 ce que son cabinet collabore enti\u00e8rement avec la GRC, notamment en lui fournissant des centaines de courriels pour qu'elle puisse les examiner.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3528805\" data-originallang=\"en\">C'est Nigel Wright et le s\u00e9nateur Duffy qui font l'objet d'une enqu\u00eate, je le r\u00e9p\u00e8te.</p>"
