Mr. Speaker, my question is for the solicitor general. Some time ago, the RCMP suspended Sergeant Gaétan Délisle for running in a municipal election and being elected Mayor of Saint-Blaise-sur-Richelieu. This individual has been campaigning for years to defend the right of RCMP officers to form a professional association.
How can the solicitor general justify Sergeant Délisle's suspension, when other RCMP officers elected to public office in their communities have never been suspended from their jobs?
