Mr. Speaker, over the course of the evening we have heard about the varying levels of worthiness of former attorneys general. The member for Glengarry—Prescott—Russell exclaimed that the opinions of former attorneys general were not worthy to call out this scandal for what it was.
I would like to quote Michael Bryant, the former Liberal attorney general, who said in today's Globe and Mail, “Her testimony disclosed a constitutional crisis far worse than what I envisioned.” He went on to say:
She says it was a bald attempt by the Prime Minister to exercise his cabinet-making power over her quasi-judicial authority. I am personally very familiar with the tactic, but have never seen evidence of it used on an attorney-general in this brazen, reckless fashion.
Having heard from another attorney general and hopefully having been a Liberal worthy enough for recognition by the Liberal members opposite, does the member now believe that an RCMP investigation should be called?
