Mr. Speaker, that is a legitimate question.
The leader of the official opposition aspires to be the prime minister of Canada. Today, he is telling us that he does not want to get his security clearance or see the documents because it would prevent him from speaking publicly about the issue.
Is he saying that, if he ever becomes the prime minister of Canada, he will refuse to see sensitive information because he is afraid that he will not be able to speak publicly about that issue? That does not make any sense. If he does not want to get his security clearance, then he should come up with a better reason than that. The reason that he is giving right now is not a good one.
