Minister, the legislation to end the long-gun registry doesn't obviate the need for the government to obey the law. The reality is that orders were given to the RCMP to break the law by ignoring pre-existing access to information cases.
Does it bother you that this budget bill actually retroactively makes legal what was illegal at the time? Isn't that at best unusual, but certainly disrespectful of the law, which we're supposed to be defending as parliamentarians?
