Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for Saanich-Gulf Islands for the question.
The inquiry as set forth will do an adequate job on the Somalia operation and on other aspects of the military.
I hear questions from across the way at different times asking for these independent inquiries. This inquiry is necessary and will lay to rest the questions of Somalia. It will lay to rest a lot of other questions out there.
I will not rest until I see the day when this type of investigation will be done from within this organization right here. It is my goal as a parliamentarian to see standing committees and other committees doing the work of these special commissions. When that day arrives I will have contributed my part to the parliamentary and democratic process.
