Mr. Speaker, I apologize.
We have asked for some clarity on the mission. We have also asked for some direct humanitarian response and the government has said it is willing to follow up on the four requests that we have made. However, does the hon. member not agree with me that something as important as sending our troops into harm's way, and everyone agrees that they are going into a theatre of conflict, should have a motion from government that we vote on to satisfy all Canadians, in particular, if I may, the Canadian Forces we are sending into theatre. After all, it is our decision to send them abroad. They will go where we tell them to go, but it is incumbent upon us to tell Canadians and those forces exactly what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what the exact mission is.
