Mr. Speaker, the Liberals seem to be using the idea of handing documents over to the RCMP as a reason not to turn them over to the House, when the RCMP could simply choose not to look at the documents.
Our role here in the House differs from that of the RCMP. The RCMP has a criterion that focuses on the criminality of the acts done, whereas ours focuses on legitimacy. Our role is to hold the government accountable for its actions.
By hiding behind the RCMP, the government is preventing parliamentarians from doing their job. I would like my colleague to talk to us about this aspect.
