Mr. Speaker, for many of us outside of Quebec, the October crisis can be a relatively unknown event, especially for young Canadians. This is one of the only times citizens' rights were suspended for the sole purpose of controlling what the government deemed an imminent uprising.
I want to thank the member for explaining the importance of this historical scar for Quebeckers but also for sharing his own personal trauma, which this inflicted on him. Here we are 50 years after the October crisis and the wounds of the enactment of the War Measures Act are still clearly being felt by this member and many Quebeckers. Maybe he can give us some idea as to why the Liberal government would still refuse to acknowledge its responsibility and apologize to Quebeckers.
