Mr. Speaker, as I have mentioned before, it is difficult for parliamentarians to speak about the facts in an ongoing case.
We are speaking about a case that is before a quasi-judicial independent tribunal. We do not discuss matters when they are before judicial courts. I am not sure we should be getting into the intricate details while the case is ongoing.
Suffice it to say, I am equally concerned about a number of cases that cause a certain degree of frustration and consternation for Canadians. That is one of the principal reasons this government has moved quickly to try to address the systematic features that could certainly be righted and could eliminate more abuse. This is one of the reasons we have Bill C-44.
Why do Reform members relish talking about individual cases and at the same time refuse legislation to improve the system which would minimize the very cases they bring forward in this House of Commons day after day?
