Mr. Speaker, yesterday, during a one-hour television broadcast, we learned more about where the Prime Minister stood on the issue of sending ground troops than in two weeks of questioning here in the House.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister surprised everyone by saying that he would not be opposed to sending ground troops.
I want to know why the Prime Minister claimed that this question was too hypothetical to debate and vote on here in the House, when his mind was already made up. How could he have so little respect for parliament?
