Mr. Speaker, rather than collapsing into hysteria and misinformation, perhaps we should go directly to the report. In terms of talking about misperceptions, on page 240 of the report, referring to the foreign affairs minister of the time, the report says:
The perception that Mr. Arar had not been tortured was wrong and, no doubt, the Minister’s statements planted the seeds of that misperception in the minds of some.
Here we have the former minister of the Liberal government, under whom this took place, who did not even believe he was tortured.
