Mr. Speaker, in an interview with Peter Mansbridge, the Liberal leader said that we must seek to understand the root cause behind the bombing attack on innocent civilians in Boston that killed three people and injured over 170 others. He said, “This happened because there is someone who feels completely excluded, completely at war with innocents, at war with a society. And our approach has to be, okay, where do those tensions come from?”
There is no “root cause” and no “tensions” that justify the killing and maiming of innocent civilians. This behaviour must be condemned unequivocally wherever it occurs. There can be no justification.
The Liberal leader must immediately clarify his comments about the brutal attack that took place on innocent civilians in Boston this week.
