Mr. Speaker, I thank the hon. member for his question. I did say at the very beginning that we support the motion. We should do our job. It is part of our job to vote on these issues and I did take the opportunity to explain the peace forum. The Bloc member on our peace forum steering committee has been one of the most knowledgeable, effective and interested members of parliament on the committee.
I would like to read from Hansard of September 24, 1990, in government orders, in which the right hon. member for Calgary Centre moved the following motion:
That this House condemn the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq and, encouraged by the unprecedented international consensus demanding the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of Iraqi forces from Kuwait--
Basically there was a motion before the House in 1990, which we voted on, as to whether we should or should not put our forces in harm's way. We did our job then. We should do it now.
