Mr. Speaker, I have another question for the solicitor general.
He knows the public complaints commission reports to a minister of the government before it reports to parliament. A judge does not report to a minister of the House. A judge is totally independent, unlike the public complaints commission. The minister also knows that a judicial inquiry would be totally independent of this House. People who work for this government would not be phoning the CBC about a reporter if a judge were handling this case.
Will the minister finally tell the people of Canada that he will do what everybody in Canada wants, except for members of the Liberal Party over here, and have a judicial inquiry into the APEC affair?
