Mr. Speaker, this is an example of what I just referred to, of sliding to an unacceptable level of debate when we are talking about legislation.
We will not stand for the insidious question and the insidious remarks by the member suggesting that we are concerned about anything less than the safety and security of all Canadians.
We are not wilting in the light of that insidious type of language. It is time to be mature when we talk about this issue.
In the last election campaign we had more candidates of ethnic and minority groups than any other party, including the party across the way. As we sit here today there are more MPs of non-European descent in the Canadian Alliance than in any other party. We proudly stand for all Canadians.
This member is telling me about FACT and about naming a certain group. If he were really sincere about this concern he should have talked to the groups and organizations, not the Canadian Alliance that talked about the group FACT.
It has been identified as such by CSIS, by the U.S. state department and by his own Department of Justice and Department of Immigration and Citizenship lawyers. I wonder if he has addressed those people or if he is just getting political here.
