Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the Prime Minister said that this information was collected as part of “law enforcement...investigations and surveillance”. That is what the Prime Minister said, and we are supposed to believe him.
Is the minister really trying to claim that there are 1 million Canadians under criminal investigation? A million? Really?
It reminds me of when Stockwell Day said that there was actually, despite all the evidence to the contrary, an increase in crime in Canada because of unreported crime.
If there are a million criminals out there, how can the law and order government possibly justify it?
