Mr. Speaker, my question is for the solicitor general.
Last Thursday the hon. member for Pictou--Antigonish--Guysborough, perhaps inadvertently, distorted my position and that of Mr. David Harris, a former CSIS employee, on the matter of a foreign intelligence agency for Canada. Both Mr. Harris and I have called for a public discussion on Canada's future intelligence needs.
Could the solicitor general offer any comments with respect to the need for a more public dialogue on security and intelligence issues?
