Mr. Speaker, what was quite clear yesterday was that the Prime Minister stated that we had the utmost confidence in Mr. Strahl. Mr. Strahl is an individual who served his country and his community for many years. When we leave this place we should all aspire to have the same reputation that he had when he left. He is an individual of the highest ethical standards. We are very proud of the work he did. Canadians should also be proud of the work he did. Unfortunately, the NDP is trying to turn it into a political thing. This is an individual we are proud of.
In the House of Commons on January 28th, 2014. See this statement in context.
