Mr. Speaker, normally a government member ought to have risen to say that what has just been said makes no sense. I cannot remain seated without commenting on such a speech.
I think I have figured out what the hon. member's problem is. Having listened to him carefully for 10 minutes, I think he is in the wrong legislature. He should be a member of a provincial legislature, because everything he mentioned relates to the administration of justice. As far as the disqualification of the judge is concerned, he may have forgotten, but he did not specify which level of court this was. It was probably a court of first instance, where the judgeships are provincial, not federal appointments. If the judge is incompetent, let the hon. member speak to the Minister of Justice for British Columbia, which is where he was appointed, but not in this place.
I think that he is comparing apples and oranges, and scaring everybody in the process. This is how prejudices are created in Canadian and in Quebec society, when people listen to these folks with their tales of the bogey man, trying to stir up fear about the Young Offenders Act, for instance.
Everything the hon. member had to say about the adjournments, the changes of court dates, the disqualification of the judge, who appears not to have done a good job, comes under provincial jurisdiction. The Bloc Quebecois members are not in agreement with this, because we respect your Canadian constitution. We may not have adopted it, or signed it, but we do respect it.
