Mr. Speaker, it seems to me that the APEC inquiry is about investigations into the RCMP. What we are interested in talking about today is what the Prime Minister's involvement was in all of that.
RCMP Inspector Bill Ard is quoted as saying, “The Prime Minister wanted everybody removed. That was the deal and we are feeling there is no legal way to do that”.
In the face of these hard RCMP facts, why will the government not confirm the involvement, and indeed the interference of the Prime Minister and his office in the APEC summit in 1997?
