Mr. Speaker, the Minister of National Defence recently quoted from a document. I would ask that he table that document in the House.
Yesterday the defence minister stated in the House that there was no cover-up of the murder in Somalia. Let me remind him that his department shredded documents, intimidated witnesses, withheld truthful information from the military police and withheld evidence.
This points to a cover-up but we will never know the truth because the government is covering up the cover-up by shutting down the inquiry.
When the defence minister says that there is no cover-up, how does he know? Does he have evidence or facts to base that on? Or, is he just politically interfering with the inquiry once again?
