I do not care if it is a ghost or him or whatever. You can have the ghost. It is all good; I know it was in jest anyway.
Mr. Speaker, we got to this place before with the Afghan detainee documents that were not released by the Conservatives, and now we have this situation. One of the solutions for Parliament is updating Crown copyright. It is important to preface by saying that Crown copyright is the privileged access Canadians get to documents, information and research that should be made publicly available on a regular basis. Canada is one of the Commonwealth nations that has not updated this. All the others have. In fact, our laws go back to the early 1900s and have rarely been reviewed. The United States does not have this problem.
Why are the Conservatives still opposed to updating Crown copyright? We could have done that and it would have prevented a lot of this mess right now. I would like to see that done. If the Conservatives would agree, we could get that done and get some of the documents sooner.
