Mr. Speaker, Canadians should be alarmed by the Conservative leader's choosing to ignore risks to his own party and to our country, and his excuses have all been dismissed by non-partisan national security experts. If he has nothing to hide, what is he afraid of? Why will he not get his security clearances?
Let me put this in terms that I think the Leader of the Opposition might actually understand. He needs to get the clearance, take the briefing and protect the country.
