Madam Speaker, let us be clear here. What we have before us is an issue where the students are the ones who are launching the complaint against the RCMP.
What would have happened if, for example, the RCMP did not take the controlled action it took at the demonstration in order to ensure the security of our guests attending the conference?
The gentlemen on the opposite side would have been the first ones up in the House to attack the government for not ensuring the safety and security of those who were here as our guests.
This is a tremendous waste of our democratic process. These guys are standing up and trying to milk what I believe is an important issue for political expediency, nothing more, nothing less.
