Madam Speaker, I would say to my colleague and to any Canadian who is watching here, anyone who is serving abroad, anyone who is serving in this chamber, their first obligation should be loyalty to Canada. Therefore, they should take whatever actions are necessary to ensure that loyalty to Canada is maintained, whether it is from a security perspective or from a fraud perspective. The government is not showing loyalty to Canada in not providing documents for the review of the official opposition and Canadians. This is a principle that I carry with me in the House of Commons, as do all of my colleagues, and that I carried with me as a diplomat. People can determine my actions based upon my loyalty to Canada.
In the House of Commons on October 3rd, 2024. See this statement in context.
