I will say it in French and kindly ask the interpreters not to make any mistakes.
Some questions have been raised as to whether members could express themselves freely, given that the government has filed an appeal on a case that is currently before a court in British Columbia. The sub judice convention applies here. Under this convention, members must refrain from taking part in public debate on these questions, on questions of fact in particular. Members must not become directly involved in the proceedings of a case. However, in this case, the committee was designated as an appropriate vehicle for addressing the dissatisfaction expressed by some veterans. This is a fluid convention. As long as members use their judgment, I do not see why we could not start discussing these matters.
