Thank you, Minister, for being here today.
I think my colleague Mr. Lukiwski mentioned earlier that all parties are involved in this thing. The NDP saw an example on the weekend from whoever was trying to subvert their process in their leadership selection, so I'd like to frame it in broader terms than just parliamentarians. I'd like to frame it, basically, in terms of freedoms of all Canadians.
Essentially it becomes.... Parliament is an example of who our constituents wish to be here. We're an example of that. I would say this group typically claims to be part of their own democratic process and claims to be supportive of it, but they really are subverting the process as opposed to being part of it.
I think you said it as well. There are really two elements here. There are some that are more nefarious, but there are also more the innocent members, I would say, who have an innocent affiliation with the group. For whatever reason, it emboldens them to hide behind the name. I would challenge those groups that want to be part of the process to be part of the process.
I would like to know your opinion. If Anonymous was sitting right here, what would you say to them?
