Mr. Speaker, yesterday it was revealed that Private David Brocklebank, who was acquitted of all charges in the death of Shidane Arone, was charged because of his conduct in the First Airborne video.
Despite the minister's promises of openness, these new charges were kept secret from the public and even from the Somalia commission itself.
How can the public have any confidence in the government's commitment to the Somalia inquiry when it insists on acting behind its back?
