Mr. Speaker, this does not add up.
The minister is saying that he knew that torture was a possibility from the moment they took office in late January 2006. No action of any remedial kind was taken until April 2007.
Why, then, has the government been smearing the reputation of a public servant who tried to tell it what was happening in that period? None of this adds up.
When will the government set up a public inquiry to give Canadians the truth?
