Mr. Speaker, this coming Sunday will mark the 11th anniversary of the worst terrorist attack in Canadian history, the bombing of Air-India flight 182. The innocent victims of this mass murder included 278 Canadians of East Indian descent.
Families of these innocent victims have been patiently waiting for justice but the RCMP, after launching the largest probe in history, has failed to lay a single charge. It even offered a $1 million reward for information leading to the arrest of the individuals responsible. That was a year ago and still the victims' families are waiting.
On behalf of the families of the victims I urge the government to immediately establish a royal commission to investigate the biggest act of terrorism ever committed on Canadian soil. These families deserve to know the facts surrounding this tragedy. They deserve no less than honesty and truth from the government.
