Mr. Speaker, according to the defence minister, everybody knows what happened in Somalia so we do not need the inquiry commission.
Since the minister knows, perhaps he can tell us why no military police were sent to investigate the March 4 shooting, or why Major
Armstrong's medical report was ignored. Perhaps he can tell us whether Bob Fowler really did blackmail Kim Campbell and whether generals interfered with an investigation.
Since the minister knows the answers, will he tell Canadians what they are? If not, why is he so determined to avoid learning the truth?
