The fact that the contract was a done deal and the very existence of cancellation penalties have apparently been contradicted. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4280252\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Yesterday, the Liberals voted against our proposal to create a subcommittee to study arms exports.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4280253\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Why are the Liberals refusing to let parliamentarians do their job? What are they afraid of?</p>",
