No, I do not, Madam Speaker, and I find it offensive that a member of the House would intimate that our government would act under pressure or that an independent intelligence service agency of our government would act under pressure from another government to list an entity based on no evidence whatsoever; I think that is shameful.
I would like to inform the member for Burnaby—Douglas that he may wish to inform PKK or KADEK, if he supports them that highly, that any listed entity, be it under the Criminal Code or the United Nations suppression of terrorism regulation, can apply to the Solicitor General asking to be removed from the list or lists. Under the Criminal Code, provisions also exist for a listed entity to have the listing decision reviewed by the judicial system. If the member is so convinced that there is no evidence to justify the listing of PKK or KADEK, he should inform KADEK or PKK of the possibility of asking for an appeal of that decision. He should do that.
I believe that the government has acted wisely. I know that the Solicitor General would not have made such a recommendation if reasonable grounds did not exist to believe that KADEK or PKK should be listed pursuant to the Criminal Code.
