"Will the Parliament Buildings be sold?"

"In one year, with the support of this bill, it is possible that there will be no Crown land assets left." House of Commons Ottawa November 22 1991. Member of Parliament Dennis Mills (Broadview-Greenwood) Liberal: "Madam Speaker, when I got up this morning and headed to the House I actually had no intention of speaking...Then in my office I read parts of Bill C-3, an act respecting the acquisition, administration and disposition of of real property by the Government of Canada. I know that all of us were in support of this bill, but as I started to reflect on what is really going on in this bill I became concerned."

" It concerns me that in one year, with the support of this bill, it is possible that there will be no Crown land assets left. I think of my own city of Toronto and the way this government has disposed of the Harbourfront lands, has disposed of Terminal 3 at Pearson International Airport and the disposition of the CBC lands. This is a bill that is going to make the developers of every city of Canada ecstatic.'

"As a result of this bill if a line department has a Crown asset, a land asset which does not meet that particular department's needs, at that time the department will have the ability to put that land basically out to tender."
