Mr. Speaker, on Friday I asked the Solicitor General about the escape of Ian John Hutton from a halfway house in Vaughan, Ontario. It was apparent that the minister had not been informed of Hutton's unlawful absence.
Could the Solicitor General explain why a murderer, who is classified on CPIC as being violent and an escape risk, could be unlawfully at large for four days without the minister or the media being notified?
