Mr. Speaker, I guess the Minister of National Defence is not taking responsibility.
The Conservative government, however, has raised misleading Canadians to an art form. The Prime Minister told the House last spring that the Italian service was a backup but the new trail of emails contradicts this story. The defence department was actually pushing for the plan to move medical emergency calls to Rome when Halifax said it would not take marine emergency calls.
Will the Minister of National Defence now explain these contradictions and come clean on his role and his department's reckless decision?
