Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for his heartfelt speech this evening. I have heard from members, from individuals across Canada, who have expressed the fear that they feel. They are worried about how to talk to their children and spouses about the violence they are threatened with. They feel that their community has been targeted and that they are at risk every single day. We have seen extortion happening across the country. Obviously, we have seen violence, including alleged murder.
Some of the members of the community, such as Canadians from coast to coast to coast who are part of the Sikh community, are experiencing such violence against them. They know that there is a leader of an official party in the House of Commons who will not get a security clearance. They know he is choosing to ignore the pain they are suffering and what they are going through. Could the member speak a little bit about how it must feel or how he would assume it would feel for those members of the community?
