Madam Speaker, I thank the hon. member for his comments. There are lawyers to represent the RCMP and there are lawyers to represent the witnesses who may be called from the Prime Minister's office. Who will pursue the evidence that leads to the Prime Minister's office if there is not legal representation for the students? If there is no legal representation in this area, how will that evidence be pursued? How will it be examined? How will it be determined whether or not there was political interference in the exercise of police authority at the APEC summit?
In the House of Commons on October 20th, 1998. See this statement in context.
