Mr. Speaker, for months now the NDP caucus has been calling on the Prime Minister to clearly state the government's opposition to the U.S. military defence proposal. The reply has always been that the government will talk to the Americans and then it will tell Canadians what was said.
Tomorrow President Bush's travelling salesmen are coming to Canada to find out if we will be part of this treacherous NMD scheme. What will the government tell the Americans when they come a-calling. Will it ignore the opposition from millions of Canadians, including members of its own caucus, or will the government say no to George Bush and refuse to allow Canada to be a part of this nuclear madness?
