Mr. Speaker, in other words, they do not want to hear from Mr. Colvin. That seems pretty clear.
If the government really wants to help the Military Police Complaints Commission, it has to allow it to operate independently.

Since January, they have refused to allow people to testify.
Mr. Colvin is an exceptional witness. Why is the government trying to muzzle him?
