Mr. Speaker, after years of peacekeeping under very difficult circumstances our ground troops are finally coming home from Bosnia. Our troops have done the very best job possible and all Canadians are extremely proud of them.
While the government blasted the Reform Party for suggesting a withdrawal, when the UN told it the same thing last night it immediately fell into line. Now that our troops are coming home will the Prime Minister guarantee that before Canada commits to any future missions Parliament will be allowed to establish a clear set of criteria for all future military commitments?
