Mr. Speaker, the pride and confidence of our military has been shaken, not only inside Canada but it is now being questioned internationally.
Colonel Geof Haswell has accused Canada's UN ambassador, among others, of instigating a cover-up, and I say a cover-up, in the Somali affair.
It is critical that those who were at the top in DND at the time these events occurred be brought back to Ottawa until these allegations are resolved.
Will the Minister of Foreign Affairs agree to recall Mr. Bob Fowler until all his testimony before the inquiry is complete and he has been cleared of these serious allegations?
