Mr. Speaker, I do not even know whether I should deal with a sad and pathetic question such as that. He is impugning seasoned military officers on the military police force with a level of ignorance that is unfathomable.
We have gone through Afghanistan on the basis of the current protocol. We have gone through Libya on the basis of the current protocol. We are in Mali on the basis of the current protocol. As far as I know, unless someone can demonstrate otherwise, none of the investigations that have arisen by virtue of police investigations have resulted in any military police being killed, injured or maimed in the entire process.
What really concerns me about this particular bill is that it could have been so much better. For whatever reason, the government wishes to play the “it's all your fault” game. Frankly, it is regrettable to say, but we could have done better for our men and women in uniform.
