Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his passionate question.
The answer was, in part, in the question. How did we end up with a government that does not want to acknowledge its mistakes? That is the real question.
I am really disappointed because it is the 50th anniversary. In 10 years, there is a chance that most of the people who lived through that era will no longer be alive. The government has an opportunity to make it right and apologize to them. It should not pass up this opportunity.
