Mr. Speaker, last week Diane Francis wrote about Quebec terrorist Ray Villeneuve. On Friday in her member's statement the separatist member for Laval Centre referred to patriotic Canadian editors and columnists as stalinizers.
To equate thoughtful journalism to Stalin the slaughterer is shameful. Stalin murdered millions of innocent people. My ancestors and other Canadians who fled Russia are disgusted and insulted by the separatist's comments. How dare she minimize the memories of such a murderous madman.
Convicted killer Villeneuve and his guerrillas continue to threaten innocent people. Senior citizens, for heaven's sake, are being beaten in the streets of Quebec by separatist thugs while our justice system stands idly by.
Villeneuve brags about taking hammers and bombs to federalists. The separatists should be attacking the hammer and sickle techniques of Villeneuve, not the media that are merely reporting the facts.
