Mr. Speaker, I am not going to comment on the specifics of the case. The individual deserves to have a fair trial. The matter will proceed to a court martial. Cohesion and discipline in the military are very important. Someone is alleged to have disobeyed an order in terms of a major offence. On that basis the court martial will proceed.
In the House of Commons on March 5th, 1999. See this statement in context.
