Mr. Speaker, I personally find it extremely alarming that the Leader of the Opposition did not issue a statement on the incredible RCMP revelation that happened last week.
As others have said, I also find it absolutely perplexing that the Leader of the Opposition would not get a security clearance so he could at least understand and absorb the information. The Conservatives get up repeatedly, at least two or three times today, to say “release the names”, but their leader has access to all these names. All he would need to do is get a security clearance and he would have the names.
I am wondering if the member is as equally confused about all of this as I am. One, the Leader of the Opposition will not make a single statement on this, at least not publicly, and two, he seems to hide at every single opportunity instead of getting a security clearance so he can have access to the information that we would naturally assume anybody aspiring to be prime minister would want.
