Mr. DUFF:
It seems to me there is a
question of privilege in connection with the statement I made yesterday and those made yesterday and to-day by the Minister of Trade and Commerce. To-day the minister states he received a telegram on March 12 from Pickford and Black. If hon. members would look at Hansard! for March 13, page 1663, they would find that the minister stated on that day:
I would say that a telegram was received this morning-
March 13-
-from Pickford and Black, but no other communications so far as I am aware have been received.
Consequently either the minister or his official was wrong, or there is something wrong with his statement made to-day.
