But since Rock's appointment as industry minister in January 2002, his department has had major dealings with the Irvings, including an appointment to a federal advisory committee and a multimillion-dollar package to convert an idle shipyard.

    I really don\'t see why any member of parliament is accepting freebies from anybody at anytime, for any reason. These are not volunteer jobs, and they know that at any given time they may be moved from one portfolio to another, so even if they don\'t \'think\' they will be involved with a certain company today they should consider that they may be in the future. I can\'t recall ever being given a freebie from anyone, excluding the odd coupon for groceries. But then again, nobody asked me to make a deal on laundry soap that would impact the entire country. So just maybe these guys ought to stop being bought, and think about the impact their decisions have on this country and it\'s people...just maybe??
