Mr. Speaker, a little earlier during Question Period the Prime Minister referred to two debates.
In fact, last Tuesday there was a constructive debate in this House on the situation in Bosnia. However, the government did not take advantage of this debate to put forward its own position, and we still do not know whether the government is in favour of maintaining Canadian troops in Bosnia or endorses a unilateral
withdrawal, as the Prime Minister suggested just before he left for Europe two weeks ago.
My question is directed to the Minister of National Defence: Can the minister tell us in the House today what the government's position is on our peacekeepers in Bosnia?
