Mr. Speaker, let me be very clear about what the Prime Minister said in 1998. He said:
Saddam's determination to develop and use weapons of mass destruction, chemical warfare in particular, is well documented. Anyone doubting the serious character of the threat this man represents has only to recall how he turned these weapons against his own people.
If that was the government's view in 1998 when Canada supported American and British strikes against Iraq, why is it not the view of the government today?
