   Proceeds of Crime   
   Mr. Randy White (Langley-Abbotsford, CPC): Mr. Speaker, the great Canadian   
   dream is to own one's own home after years of hard work to pay the   
   mortgage. I want to tell Canadians what is really going on so I will use   
   just one example of many.   
      
   Phu Son came to Canada in 1994. He was 38 years old and had no money when   
   he arrived. He has been on welfare from the time he arrived 10 years ago.   
   He recently got busted for drug dealing. Now I find he owns three homes,   
   not one but three: one in Abbotsford, another in Aldergrove, and yet   
   another in Langley, British Columbia.   
      
   How does a person come to Canada and stay on welfare for 10 years? How does   
   a person living exclusively on welfare come to own three houses? Why are   
   these houses not seized as proceeds of crime and used for rehabilitation of   
   drug addicts?   
      
   I do not know the answers, but the government of British Columbia and the   
   federal Liberal government have a lot of explaining to do. This situation   
   is becoming all too common in this country."   
      
   [It's worth watching CPAC - Hansard does not record the cries of "Shame!"   
   emitted by the money-laundering Liberal side of the house.]
