Mr. Speaker, in France, in Great Britain and in the United States, there is an inspector general for the armed forces.
An inspector general was required in the case of the Somalia inquiry. Our party's electoral platform includes the appointment of an inspector general. There have been reports showing that drugs were used in a top secret military base and that there was another cover-up by the Department of National Defence.
In view of these facts, why does Canada not appoint an inspector general for the armed forces?
