Mr. Chairman, I would like to continue.
I now have some questions for the Commission nationale des parents francophones, the Association des parents fransaskois and the Quebec Anglophone School Board Association.
Last Tuesday evening, I participated in what we call an adjournment debate at the House of Commons on the Court Challenges Program. On five occasions, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Justice referred to “criminal legal aid” in his four-minute response, and he concluded by saying:
Canada's new government is committed to continue funding for criminal legal aid.
Don't you find it a little bit ironic that, on my side of the chamber, I was talking about the Court Challenges Program and that, on five occasions in the four-minute response, the parliamentary secretary told us that we should not be concerned and that the Conservative government was funding criminal legal aid?
