Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question.
The problem is that the Conservatives are twisting the concept of terrorism to suit their own interests. They are doing so quickly and abruptly, simply for election purposes.
They have trademarked themselves as the “tough on crime” party. Now they are using terrorism to pursue their agenda, because it fits in nicely with the narrative they have presented. A large portion of the Canadian population responds to that kind of message.
However, using this kind of concept in such a twisted sense and for purely elitist and election purposes is highly questionable and reprehensible.
