Mr. Speaker, in December 1997, the auditor general wrote the following about the RCMP commission, and I quote “The Commission needs to significantly improve the way it carries out public hearings, both by prescribing clear and precise terms of reference for each hearing and by providing its members with training in conducting hearings”.
With the commission unable to clarify its terms of reference and to properly hold hearings, how can the minister say to us that he can give us all the details of the sombre events in Vancouver?
